Alongside divorce and private children matters, you'll advise on high-quality financial remedy cases involving family businesses, farming interests, substantial property portfolios, inherited wealth, trusts and pensions.

The team is particularly keen to speak with someone who enjoys children work and is confident managing child arrangement matters from initial advice through to resolution, whether by negotiation or litigation.
Whether you're around 2 years' PQE and looking for the next step in your career, or you're a much more experienced Family Solicitor seeking a supportive environment where you can continue to do high-quality work, we would love to hear from you.
Key requirements:
- Has experience in private family law
