Job Details
Experienced Family Solicitor
Leeds
I am working with a fantastic, multi-service firm in Leeds who are looking for an experienced Family Solicitor (Matrimonial & Finances) to join their department.
The firm has a first-class reputation in personal law with both their Family and Private Client teams being recognised nationally as one of the market leaders.
They are looking for an experienced Family Law Solicitor with excellent contacts and business development skills to grow the team in Leeds.
This will likely suit Family Solicitors with 5 years PQE and above. Although a following as such is not required a proven track record of building and maintaining contacts and networks through business development is essential.
You will be dealing with a really interesting and varied caseload of privately funded Family law work - predominantly Divorce, Finance and Private Children work including lots of more complex matters and advising HNW individuals.
The Firms personal law teams have seen unprecedented growth over the last few years and have won many awards being recognised both nationally and internationally. They are recognised in the most recent up to date rankings in both the Legal 500 and Chambers Guide.
Culture at the firm is important too and whilst the firm are a full service practice, and think commercially, this does not take away from the family feel here, with a great culture and the continued emphasis on providing excellent client care.
Salary is competitive depending on experience with great benefits.
If you would like to hear more about this role then please contact Graham Rawlinson for a confidential chat.

QED
An acronym of the latin phrase quod erat demonstrandum which translates as "thus it is demonstrated" or "that which was to be demonstrated". It is most often used as an annotation at the end of a complex mathematical, scientific or philosophical argument to show that the author had proven what he had set out to prove. In recent times it has also been translated as "Quite Easily Done".
As a recruiter you have to network and speak to large amounts of people and lots of law firms to really understand the market and have the connections to match people with opportunity quickly when the time arises. A good recruiter needs to be Quick, Excellent and Dynamic in everything that they do. Allow the team at QED to demonstrate what they can do for your firm or your career.
