About the Opportunity

I'm currently working with a well-established and growing law firm in South West London that is looking to appoint an experienced Private Client Solicitor to join its expanding team.

This is an excellent opportunity for a solicitor looking to take on a broad private client caseload while also playing a key role in supervising and developing a small, established team.

• Advise clients on Wills, Lasting Powers of Attorney, Probate, Estate Administration and related private client matters.
• Handle a range of high-net-worth estates and more complex private client work.
• Supervise and support an existing team comprising a Senior Consultant and two Paralegals.
• Build and maintain strong client relationships, providing an exceptional level of service throughout each matter.
• Work closely with the firm's leadership team and contribute to the continued growth of the private client department.

About You

• Qualified Solicitor with 6+ years' PQE in Private Client.
• Strong technical knowledge across Wills, Probate, LPAs and Estate Administration.
• Experience dealing with high-net-worth clients and estates.
• Previous supervisory or mentoring experience would be advantageous.
• Excellent communication and client care skills, with the ability to manage matters independently.
• Competent IT skills and experience using legal case management systems.

If you're looking to join a supportive and growing firm where you can take on a leadership role while handling high-quality private client work, I'd be happy to discuss the opportunity in confidence.
