Family Solicitor

Clayton Legal

Are you an experienced Family Lawyer with a passion for Legal Aid work and making a genuine difference to your clients' lives? Our client is offering an excellent opportunity to join a well-established and supportive Family team that continues to grow due to ongoing success.

Why This Role Stands Out

  • Hybrid working - typically up to 2 days from home (subject to caseload)
  • Attractive bonus scheme to reward your performance
  • Join a close-knit, collaborative team with strong experience across Legal Aid Family work
  • Genuine opportunity to shape your role as the team expands
  • Supportive working environment with a strong focus on quality client care

Due to continued growth, our client is looking to recruit an additional Family Lawyer to join their busy department. You'll handle a varied caseload of Legal Aid Family matters, with a strong focus on children work.

This is a hands-on role where you'll be trusted to manage your own files while being supported by an experienced team of fee earners, consultants and support staff.

You'll be joining a well-structured Family department made up of fee earners, consultants and dedicated support staff, all working together to deliver high-quality Legal Aid services.

Key Responsibilities

  • Managing a caseload of Legal Aid Family matters
  • Advising clients on a range of children matters and broader family issues
  • Representing clients in court where required
  • Ensuring compliance with Legal Aid requirements and standards
  • Delivering a high standard of client care

What We're Looking For

  • A qualified Lawyer with 5+ years' PQE (or equivalent) in Family Law
  • Strong experience in Legal Aid Family work
  • Children Panel Membership is highly desirable (but not essential)
  • Confident managing your own caseload independently
  • A committed and empathetic approach to client care
  • Strong organisational and communication skills

This is an excellent opportunity for a Family Lawyer who enjoys Legal Aid work and wants to be part of a growing, supportive team where your contribution is genuinely valued.
