I am working with a friendly boutique law firm who are currently seeking an experienced Private Client Lawyer to join its growing team. This opportunity is ideally suited to a solicitor, legal executive or experienced fee earner who can confidently manage their own caseload with minimal supervision. The firm is looking for someone who can hit the ground running and is not seeking a training role.

You will handle a varied private client caseload, including:

  • Lasting Powers of Attorney
  • Minimum of 1 year's experience managing your own private client files
  • Ability to draft wills without supervision

The firm is open to both full-time and part-time applicants and offers a degree of flexibility around working patterns. While the role is predominantly office-based due to the nature of the client base, which includes many elderly clients who prefer face-to-face appointments, there is flexibility for one day per week working from home where required. The preferred office location is Sunderland, although applications from candidates wishing to be based in Newcastle will also be considered.
