Job Description For someone who loves family law, enjoys being in court and wants the freedom to take ownership of their work, this is an opportunity to build something really rewarding.
I'm working with an established practice with longstanding roots in the Lanarkshire community. With a friendly team, a personal approach and real scope to progress, there is plenty here for a solicitor looking to take their next step.
You'll manage your own varied caseload of privately funded and legally aided family matters, including divorce, separation, financial provision and child residence and contact. There is good autonomy to build relationships with your clients and see their cases through, alongside colleagues you can turn to for support.
Ideally, you'll have around two years' PQE, experience of legal aid work and the confidence to appear regularly in court. Just as important is your empathy. You'll understand that behind every file is someone navigating a difficult chapter, and you'll bring patience, clear advice and reassurance alongside strong legal skills.
The package makes this particularly attractive. A salary of up to £55,000 is complemented by a lucrative commission scheme linked to your individual fee-earning performance, giving you the opportunity to increase your earnings and see your contribution recognised. Generous holidays, gym membership and further benefits add to the appeal.
There is good scope for progression, room to make your mark and a welcoming team to build your future with.
