Our client, a highly respected firm known for its dynamic and forward-looking approach, is in search of a Contentious Probate Lawyer to take the helm of its trusts and probate cases. With an open-minded stance on location, candidates will relish the chance to work within the firm's various offices across Yorkshire on a hybrid basis.
In return, this role comes not only with a competitive salary but also a chance to become a pivotal figure in a growing domain. As the most senior person dealing with contentious probate matters, you'll have the scope to eventually build and lead a team, significantly shaping the service's future and your career.
This position offers an invaluable opportunity to build and manage a diverse caseload, fostering both professional development and a positive impact on clients. You'll become the firm's 'go-to' expert, ensuring that contentious probate matters are handled with the utmost care and expertise.
To thrive in this role, you'll require a thorough knowledge of contentious trusts and probate law, and ideally, have ACTAPS membership or be well on your way to achieving it. Your enthusiasm for nurturing business growth – though you need not have a personal client following – will be crucial, as will your ability to self-motivate and work independently.
In return, you'll be welcomed into an environment that prizes work-life balance with flexible working options and supportive policies like enhanced parental leave and a robust benefits package. The commitment extends to professional growth, with clear routes for progression and a culture that rewards dedication.
Our client has a clear vision for their future, underlined by their recognition as Large Firm of the Year at the Yorkshire Legal Awards and as one of Yorkshire's fastest-growing companies. They value reward fairness and are dedicated to ensuring their team feels supported and valued at every turn.
If you're a proactive and driven professional eager to steer a vital legal service area towards success, this is an unrivalled opportunity to make your mark. Join a firm where innovation and care are part of the culture, and your development is as important as your performance.
