  • Tier 2 Legal 500 contentious probate team with a clear route to senior leadership
  • High-quality, complex disputes with autonomy, trust and genuine progression
  • Employee-owned firm where everyone has a voice in the future of the business

If you’re a contentious probate lawyer looking for more than just another caseload, this role offers the chance to become a key part of a highly regarded team at an important stage in its growth.

There’s a real opportunity for someone to take ownership of a substantial workload, become heavily involved in business development, and establish themselves as a future leader within the team.

The work is varied and intellectually stimulating, covering everything from estate disputes worth hundreds of thousands through to multi-million-pound matters, often involving significant complexity. You’ll also benefit from referrals coming through from a strong non-contentious private client team.

The culture is collaborative, supportive and refreshingly free of hierarchy. As an employee-owned business, the firm encourages everyone to contribute to its success and strategic direction, while maintaining the feel of a close-knit boutique practice.

Who we’re looking for

  • Contentious Probate Solicitor, ideally 5-8 PQE
  • Strong technical ability and confidence handling disputes independently
  • Able to hit the ground running with minimal supervision
  • Commercially minded with an interest in business development
  • Hard-working, proactive and keen to contribute to team growth
  • Looking for a long-term opportunity with genuine progression


What you’ll be doing

  • Managing a varied contentious probate caseload
  • Handling complex inheritance and estate disputes
  • Working closely with the incoming Head of Department
  • Building relationships with clients and professional contacts
  • Supporting business development initiatives
  • Helping shape the future growth of the department


Salary & Benefits

  • Competitive salary dependent on experience
  • Employee-owned business
  • Hybrid working (typically 2 days from home)
  • Strong progression opportunities
  • Collaborative and supportive culture
  • Modern office with excellent motorway access
  • High levels of autonomy and trust
