Job Details

Our Legal-500 client has an opportunity for a Court of Protection Solicitor to join a close-knit, successful team in Darlington. Since the department is small, you will gain in-depth and hands-on exposure to Court of Protection matters, including working closely on deputyships.

You will have the chance to manage the day to day running of the files, including managing client's finances and investments, as well as helping with health and welfare matters. Due to the nature of the client base, it is essential that you have fantastic client care skills and the necessary emotional intelligence.

The team is ideally seeking candidates with the following attributes:
- Court of Protection Solicitor with 1+ years' PQE or a Solicitor from a catastrophic injury/criminal background who has gained a strong knowledge of COP matters by dealing with vulnerable clients
- Excellent client care skills and confidence when managing a vulnerable client base

This is an unmissable opportunity for a Court of Protection Solicitor looking to gain in-depth experience and work within a firm where development and progression is encouraged.

How to Apply:

Having been established for over 20 years, we are experts in legal recruitment. Our strength derives from the fact that we are well-known, well-respected and have developed long-standing bonds with both our clients and candidates, and have become an authority on all aspects of legal recruitment. To hear more, please contact Katie Hawke or another member of the private practice team at Sacco Mann.

Company

Sacco Mann are specialist Legal Recruiters recognised as regional experts with a genuine interest in, as well as knowledge of, their marketplace. We are renowned for giving clear and straightforward career advice and true quality of service.

We have thirteen experienced consultants focussing on legal recruitment, encompassing the Commercial, General Practice, Public Sector and In House positions, both permanent and locum. In addition two consultants specialise within the Patents and Trademarks sector.

We feel that much of our success has been due to the fact that we:

- try to accurately guage and understand what both candidates and clients require and indeed that which they are able to offer and then bring the two together
- have a demonstrable knowledge of the marketplace. Fundamentally what you need is not merely someone who can post your CV to a practice, but someone whose strength of contacts within the firms can add value, ensuring that you are given proper consideration
- discuss each role with you thoroughly and get prior clearance before a CV is submitted. This is an extremely important for protecting confidentiality and avoiding duplication
- brief you fully prior to any interviews, ensuring that you know what the role entails and how the interview will be run. We also give you honest interview feedback - if you don't do very well in an interview you can always learn from the experience
- are accessible and return your calls

Why use Sacco Mann?

Principally because we believe that the points outlined above are fundamental. We enjoy recruitment, and we are good at it, because we genuinely enjoy assisting people make positive career moves. We don't shuffle paper because we know our marketplace and are therefore in a position to give reliable, knowledgeable and practical advice.

The vast majority of our applicants and clients are at pains to thank us for the advice and service that we provide and we believe the high level of referral business is a direct result of the fact that lawyers value our input.
