Family Lawyer – Chichester | 3+ PQE
Lex Exec is working with one of the South Coast’s most respected and fastest-growing specialist family law firms to recruit a Family Lawyer into its Chichester team.
The firm has built an excellent reputation for high-quality family work and a modern, constructive approach to resolving disputes.
The role offers a varied caseload alongside a strong focus on out-of-court dispute resolution, including mediation and collaborative law. Collaborative Law training would be welcomed, although training can be provided for the right lawyer.
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.
