I am recruiting on behalf of a dynamic Yorkshire law firm with offices in across Yorkshire, looking for a Family Solicitor to join the team in their Wakefield office. With decades of excellent service, the firm are a highly acclaimed choice for the West Yorkshire Area and beyond.

This role is suited to a qualified Family Solicitor or Legal Executive who has experience of working with privately paying and legally aided clients, preferable but not essential. Dealing with all elements of family work such as divorce; separation and civil partnership matters; financial issues arising out of family breakdown, as well as Children Act proceedings.


The Candidate
Ideally you will have a minimum of 2 years' experience of managing your own family caseload and be able to undertake advocacy in family courts including before Lay Justices.

This role is ideal for someone eager to establish themselves as a Family Solicitor or FCILEx.

You will be part of a team of family fee earners. As part of this team you will occasionally assist in any of our other offices.

Whilst shared secretarial services are available self-supporting abilities would be an advantage.

The salary for the role will depend upon experience and the role is a full-time one.
