• £38k - 50k per year

Ready for something more than just another Family Law role? What about helping to build an office of your own?

I'm working with an established and highly regarded specialist Family Law firm that is looking to expand into Leicestershire / Nottinghamshire.

They're looking for an experienced Family Solicitor or non-qualified Family Fee Earner who would relish the opportunity to help establish a new office, develop a client base and play a key role in the firm's continued growth.

This is a little different from your usual fee-earning opportunity.

Rather than simply joining an existing team, you'll have the chance to help shape a new location, build relationships within the local market and enjoy a greater level of autonomy, all with the backing, experience and support of an established specialist firm.

What's involved?

You'll manage your own private Family Law caseload, with experience across areas such as:

• Divorce and separation.

• Financial remedy.

• Private children matters.

• TOLATA and cohabitation disputes.

• Pre- and post-nuptial agreements.

An interest in Private Client or Court of Protection work would also be welcomed.

What's in it for you?

There's plenty to get excited about:

• Full-time or part-time hours considered.

• Competitive salary depending on experience.

• Flexible start and finish times.

• Initially around four days per week office-based, with scope for hybrid working as the office develops.

• Experienced supervision and support from the wider team.

• Administrative, compliance and marketing support.

• 20 days' holiday plus bank holidays, with additional leave increasing with service.

• Pension, death-in-service cover and health cash plan.

• Your birthday off.

• Potential bonus scheme.

Importantly, you'll have the opportunity to develop your own profile in the local market without having to take on all the risks and responsibilities of setting up a practice independently.

Who would suit this opportunity?

I'm keen to hear from:

• Qualified Family Solicitors.

• Experienced non-qualified Family Fee Earners.

• Individuals with a strong background in privately funded Family Law.

• People who enjoy building client relationships and developing new business.

• Someone commercially minded who would love greater responsibility and influence over how a practice develops.

Perhaps you're feeling a little restricted in your current role? Maybe you're ready for more autonomy, want to build something of your own or simply fancy a fresh challenge?

You don't need to be qualified to be considered. Relevant experience, the right approach and an enthusiasm for helping grow a business are what matter.

Interested in finding out more?

I'd love to have a confidential conversation.
