Working at Stowe, you’ll enjoy the advantages of being part of a leading national family law firm while benefiting from the close-knit support of a local team. Although we're the largest family law team nationwide, we have smaller offices so you feel part of a close-knit team.
Here’s what makes us stand out:
- Flexibility that actually works: Work from home, from the office, or a mix of both, whatever helps you do your best work.
- Real progression: If you’re ready to grow, we’ll help you make it happen. We have biannual promotion windows, development programmes and clear development paths, so progression isn’t something you have to chase; it’s part of how we work.
- Dedicated support around you: You’ll have secretaries, legal assistants, billing, and new business enquiry teams behind you, so you can focus on your clients and the rewarding parts of family law.
- Well-being that means something: We know how emotionally demanding this area of law can be. From wellness leave to our partnership with Lifeworks and a network of mental health champions, your well-being is a priority, not an afterthought.
- Always improving: Our tailored case management system and brilliant marketing team are here to make your day-to-day run more smoothly.
Requirements:
- You’re likely a Chartered Legal Executive, Associate or Solicitor within family law who’s frustrated because of a lack of progression opportunities, flexibility or challenge.
