This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who genuinely loves family law, takes pride in their work, and thrives on delivering a high standard of client care.

We are not looking for just any lawyer — we want someone with a warm, approachable personality, who clients trust and colleagues enjoy working alongside.

  • Pre- and post-nuptial agreements

Experience

You will bring strong experience of managing a mixed family caseload, including divorce, financial remedy and private children matters. The perfect person will be confident in taking ownership of their work, delivering excellent client service, and contributing to the continued growth of the department.

This is a well supported role, with trainee solicitor/paralegal assistance and centralised typing support to allow you to focus on your clients and the quality of your work.

At Poole Alcock, we have built a reputation for excellent client care and a strong, supportive culture. We want people who care about what they do and enjoy being part of a team that always keeps the client’s best interests at the heart of everything we do.
