Salisbury, United Kingdom Wilsons Solicitors LLP Full time

We are looking for a Contentious Trust & Probate Solicitor / Associate / Senior Associate to join our Salisbury based Team.


The Firm

With a firm that is nearly 300 years old it is perhaps unsurprising that our traditional values are one of our core strengths. Much of our success can be explained by our commitment to our clients coupled with our readiness to adapt and invest as a forward-looking business.

We are expert private client lawyers with a national reputation. Our client base comprises individuals, companies, schools, charities, landowners, farmers and estates and these clients are both local and national. We are client focused and work in collaboration with our clients.


The Team

The team advises charities, individuals and professionals. We are one of the most highly ranked teams in the UK, rated in Chambers, Chambers HNW, Legal500 and the Top 3000 Charities directory (as one of the top two legal advisers to charities in the UK).

We advise on the full range of issues that can arise in relation to an estate or trust, from one-off questions to fully contested litigation involving multi-million pound estates. Our work includes challenges to the validity of a will, Inheritance Act claims, proprietary estoppel claims, landed estates, claims for the repayment of lifetime gifts and international issues.


The Role

An exciting opportunity has arisen for an ambitious litigator to join this growing team. The role will involve the complete spectrum of contentious trust and probate work for private clients and charities with opportunities to specialise over time. The successful candidate will enjoy working as part of a team and learning from recognised experts.


Competencies

The successful candidate will:

  • have a strong litigation background;
  • have some contentious trust or probate experience;
  • have undertaken or be willing to undertake the ACTAPS Course;
  • display a positive attitude, be self-sufficient and flexible;
  • be analytical, conscientious and attentive to detail;
  • have good communication skills;
  • be commercially aware;
