Job Description:

Family Solicitor – Merseyside | Hybrid Working

An excellent opportunity has arisen for a Family Solicitor to join a highly regarded and expanding family team in Merseyside.

I’m working with a well-established regional law firm to appoint a talented family lawyer who is looking for the next step in their career — a role offering high-quality work, genuine autonomy, and the opportunity to develop their own reputation within a supportive and ambitious team.

You’ll be joining a respected family department and working closely with one of the North West’s leading specialists in financial remedies, complex divorce, and cohabitation disputes. The team has an excellent reputation for handling sophisticated privately funded matters and providing clients with expert advice alongside a genuinely personal approach.

This is not a role focused on routine, high-volume family work. Instead, you’ll have the opportunity to work on a varied and challenging caseload, including:

  • High-value financial remedy cases
  • Complex divorce matters involving businesses, trusts, and pension assets
  • Cohabitation disputes
  • Pre and post-nuptial agreements
  • International family law issues
  • Private children matters

You’ll have the freedom to manage your own caseload, build trusted client relationships, and play an active role in developing your profile within the team.

What we’re looking for

The ideal candidate will:

  • Be a qualified Solicitor
  • Have strong experience in privately funded family law
  • Be comfortable managing their own caseload
  • Enjoy building long-term relationships with clients
  • Be commercially aware and committed to delivering excellent client service
  • Be able to work from offices in Liverpool 2–3 days per week

Why consider this opportunity?

  • Work alongside a leading family law specialist with an excellent regional reputation
  • Handle complex, high-quality privately funded matters
  • Develop your own profile and career within a growing team
  • Benefit from genuine hybrid working and flexibility
  • Enjoy a supportive culture without the pressures of a traditional city-firm environment
  • Access clear opportunities for progression and development

This is an ideal opportunity for a family lawyer who wants to move beyond routine casework and join a team where they can make an impact, continue developing technically, and build a long-term career.

For more information or a confidential discussion about this opportunity, please get in touch.
