Fergusson Law Edinburgh
Fergusson Law is a small client-focused firm, specialising in private client work and residential conveyancing.
We are looking for a legal assistant or paralegal to join our private client team. Previous experience with Wills, Powers of Attorney and executory administration would be helpful. However, good communication skills (spoken and written) and organisation skills are more important to us, and we are happy to provide training to the right candidate. This would include a training pathway to becoming a qualified paralegal in this area of law, or (in the longer term) on the paralegal route to becoming a solicitor.
This is primarily a full-time post, 35 working hours per week, and office based, but we understand the importance of a good work/life balance and are open to some flexibility.
About The Role
As a private client legal assistant you will support three solicitors, including:
- Letters of Engagement and fee notes
- Drafting Wills and Powers of Attorney
- Registration of Powers of Attorney
- Administration of deceased’s estates
You will be expected to take responsibility for ensuring that clients receive a professional and courteous service.
What We Offer
- Competitive salary commensurate with experience
- Pension Scheme
- Flexible working options
- Generous annual leave entitlement
- Ongoing Training and Development
- No time-recording (we work on fixed fees only)
