Private client Solicitor - Oxford

One of the longest established firms in Oxford - Traditional family feel to the firm with lots of face to face client contact.

I am looking for private client lawyers looking for opportunities in the Oxford area that would be interested in joining a traditional law firm dealing with high value private client matters.

Joining an existing team of 3 lawyers within the department the successful candidates will ideally have between 2-5 years experience (although there may well be opportunities) in dealing with the full range of private client matters including wills, probate, LPAs as well as trust and tax planning matters. You must enjoy meeting with clients face to face and have a personable nature in order to build and maintain strong relationships with the clients that you come across. The client centered approach the firm takes has led to the firm being able to develop a loyal client base and they have developed an excellent reputation throughout Oxford and further afield.

The firm is one of the longest established firms in Oxfordshire with a superb reputation throughout the region for their private client department. As a result they are regularly trusted by high net worth individuals looking for legal advice and services and therefore it is essential that you have experience of dealing with high net worth matters.

This role would suit a solicitor looking for more of a traditional client focused role where you can have regular contact with your clients. The firm tries to promote a family feel and many of their staff stay there for many years, with several spending their whole career with the firm, progressing up to senior and partnership positions. The firm will offer genuine and realistic opportunities for progression for any ambitious lawyers and will offer a good benefits package including a good salary, generous pension scheme and much more.

If this role sounds of interest please get in touch with Greg at QED legal.

An acronym of the latin phrase quod erat demonstrandum which translates as "thus it is demonstrated" or "that which was to be demonstrated".

In recent times it has also been translated as "Quite Easily Done".
