Job Description
Family Solicitor | NQ+ | Bristol
Most NQ+ family solicitors spend years fee-earning before they get near serious business development. This role offers something entirely different.
A top-tier specialist law firm is opening a brand-new Bristol office. They need an ambitious solicitor to join the launch partner, and from day one, you will network and business develop alongside them.
The Opportunity
* You will attend events, build relationships and help grow the Bristol practice, not in three years, but now
* You will work alongside a partner who wants you visible, not hidden
* You will run a varied private family caseload (divorce, financial remedies, children act, pre-nups, Schedule 1)
* You will support senior fee earners while developing your own files
What You Bring
* Trained and practised in well-regarded family departments
* Strong communication skills, you are someone a partner is comfortable putting in front of clients and contacts
* Ambition to build a practice, not just bill hours
Why This Firm
* Genuine specialist: private family law only, top-tier ranked
* Supportive, people-focused culture, not volume-driven
* A brand-new office launch means early responsibility and real career runway
Why This Makes Sense
At NQ+ level, you usually wait years for BD exposure. Here, you get it immediately, because a new office cannot grow with just one partner. They need you alongside them, learning by doing, building relationships that will define your career.
