Family Solicitor (4+ PQE) – Essex

An excellent opportunity for a junior Family Solicitor to develop their career alongside the Head of Department, gaining broad exposure to a genuinely varied caseload.

The Firm

This is a long-standing, multi-service practice with offices across Essex, having built a loyal client base over 70 years. The firm is Lexcel and CQS accredited, and acts for a wide range of commercial and private clients across litigation, property, family and private client work.

The firm has a strong reputation for personal, hands-on client service, consistently reflected in excellent independent client reviews. It is a people-focused business that invests in its staff, with a friendly, supportive working culture and genuine opportunities for progression.

The Role

We are seeking an experienced Family Solicitor with a minimum of 4 years PQE to join our Family and Litigation teams at our Romford office. In this role, you will manage a varied caseload of 20–25 private family law matters, acting for a broad range of clients including high-net-worth individuals, with a clear route towards a supervisory role within the family team.

The successful candidate will bring at least 4 years’ PQE across the full spectrum of private family law work, including divorce and separation, children matters, cohabitation agreements, financial remedy proceedings, TOLATA claims, domestic violence injunctions, and pre- and post-nuptial agreements. This is an excellent opportunity for a self-sufficient family lawyer looking to step into a leadership role while continuing to run a substantive caseload.

This is a stand-out opportunity for an early-career Family Solicitor to develop a broad skillset within a supportive team, with genuine long-term progression on offer.
