Private Client Solicitor – Watford Top Tier Legal 500 Firm | Friendly Culture | Career Progression
I’m working with a Top Tier Legal 500 firm in Watford that is looking to welcome a private client solicitor into its highly regarded team. Known for its technical excellence, compassionate approach, and strong local reputation, this is a rare chance to join a firm that truly blends professional quality with a genuinely supportive culture.
You’ll be stepping into a varied and rewarding role, managing a caseload that spans the full range of private client matters. This includes estate administration, wills of all complexities, LPAs, and inheritance tax planning. You’ll also advise on and implement arrangements such as lifetime trusts, gifting strategies, and deeds of variation. The work is high quality, often with HNW clients, but always with a focus on clear, empathetic client service.
This is a role for someone who thrives on client interaction and can manage matters from instruction through to completion. You’ll be liaising with executors, beneficiaries, financial institutions and other stakeholders — and will need to be confident in communicating complex information in a practical, approachable way.
You should be a qualified solicitor with at least three years’ PQE in private practice. The right person will be detail-oriented, highly organised, and confident managing their own caseload. Strong technical grounding, commercial awareness, and good working knowledge of legal software will all serve you well here.
What makes this opportunity especially attractive is the team and culture. You’ll be joining a close-knit, friendly group of lawyers who care deeply about their clients and each other. The firm offers excellent internal support, ongoing professional development, and a clear path to progress for those with ambition.
The firm offers a competitive salary, strong benefits package, and hybrid working – typically with three or more days in the Watford office each week, which helps maintain their positive, people-focused atmosphere.
If you’re looking for a firm where your contribution will be recognised, where you’ll be supported as you grow, and where the work is both stimulating and meaningful, this is worth exploring.
