Senior Family Lawyer

Somerset                                                                             to £Partner

Our Client

A quality-driven and ambitious law firm which successfully combines private client and commercial services, our client is a bit of a “hidden gem”. Thoughtful, entrepreneurial and empathic leadership sits at the heart of the firm’s collegiate and supportive culture.

Our client’s family practice is a shining example of the seam of quality which runs through the whole firm. Successful and highly-regarded, the team undertakes a wide spectrum of family work, with a distinct focus in the high net worth market. The majority of the team’s clients come by way of recommendation and referral.

The Role & You

Structural change has created a ready-made opportunity for an experienced family lawyer to join the team. You are likely to be an existing partner (or an ambitious individual with partnership aspirations) with experience of representing HNWI clients in divorce and financial relief. You will have a successful track record of client relationship management and business development, and enjoy supervising and mentoring others.

Working with the full backing of the management board and alongside supportive colleagues, you will relish this opportunity to help shape the future development of the family department and play a key part in the strategic direction of this forward-looking firm.
