Job Details

If you’re an experienced family solicitor who is looking for a new challenge this is a great opportunity for you to join a leading L500 boutique based in an affluent Cheshire town. This would be a great role for someone who would like to make the step up and take on a senior role whilst heading a small team of junior solicitors and paralegals. Similarly, this role would fit someone who would really like to establish themselves in the South Manchester / Cheshire region and grow their professional brand whilst maintaining a healthy work-life balance – particularly if you’re based in South Manchester or Cheshire.

You will be joining a really tight-knit and down to earth family team that deals with a wide range of private family matters, including high-value and complex international work, private children matters and ancillary relief – the quality of work this boutique deals with is on par level to that of city centre practices and includes a number of high profile clients. In return, clear and transparent progression opportunities will be offered, paired with a highly competitive salary and a supportive working environment.
