* Join a small, close-knit team in Southport with the backing of a Legal 500 firm.
* Step into an established caseload—no following needed, just hit the ground running.
* Enjoy flexibility with hybrid working, a structured bonus scheme, and job security in a growing department.
This is an opportunity to take on a busy caseload of private family work in a well-supported environment. You’ll be joining a small, friendly team in Southport that’s part of a larger, highly regarded Legal 500 firm.
You’ll be working closely alongside an experienced and well-connected partner who has built a strong local reputation and a steady pipeline of work through word of mouth. With a dedicated secretary, a locum solicitor for extra support, and an active search for a new paralegal, you’ll have the resources you need to focus on high-quality legal work.
If you're looking for a role where you can make an immediate impact while being part of a collaborative team, this is the perfect opportunity.
