π¨ Family Law Solicitor | 4-6 PQE
Not every family lawyer wants a bigger caseload. Some want better cases. More autonomy. Better-quality clients. And a role that gives them room to build their own reputation.
I'm currently recruiting for a Family Lawyer / Solicitor (4β6 PQE) to join a highly regarded family team in Merseyside, with offices in Liverpool and Southport and genuine hybrid working.
This is not a role centred around straightforward, high-volume family work.
You'll have the opportunity to work alongside a well-known and highly respected family law specialist, while having the autonomy to manage your own caseload and develop your own profile within an established team.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Iβm in my final year doing Economics and I donβt know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer β it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) donβt need a masters. Letβs look at the ones youβd 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 β that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
