Job Description
Children Law Solicitor
I’m working with a well-regarded law firm in South Yorkshire to recruit a Children Law Solicitor for their specialist family team in Rotherham. If you're experienced in public law children work and passionate about advocacy, this is an opportunity to join one of the region’s leading departments. This team is recognised in the Legal 500 and consistently ranks highly in client feedback.
You’ll manage a caseload of care and pre-proceedings matters, with the potential for private children law cases. Advocacy experience is important, and while Children Law Solicitor accreditation is desirable, it’s not essential. The role offers a blend of office, court and remote working, with a supportive, well-established structure and strong commitment to legal aid.
Why This Role?
* Join one of the largest and most respected family law teams in the North
* Strong focus on public children law and meaningful advocacy
* Combination of office, remote and court-based work
* Generous annual leave and flexi-time scheme
* Excellent training, support and development opportunities
Whether you're an established Children Law Solicitor or early in your career with relevant experience, this firm provides the platform to develop your skills further. You’ll be joining a team where a Children Law Solicitor can thrive — with autonomy, strong peer support, and access to complex, fulfilling work.
