About the Role

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Family Law Paralegal to join a well-established and highly regarded specialist family law firm in Bristol.

This is an excellent opportunity for a recent law graduate or an individual looking to begin their legal career within family law. You will work closely with experienced solicitors and have the opportunity to gain valuable hands-on experience across a broad range of family law matters.

The successful candidate will be organised, professional and genuinely interested in developing a career within family law. Previous paralegal or legal experience is desirable but not essential, and applications from strong law graduates are welcomed.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
