Job Description
Family Solicitor / CILEX Lawyer (Full or Part Time)

The Role
You'll handle a varied caseload of private family work, including private children matters, divorce, and financial remedy cases, as well as drafting pre and post-nuptial agreements. Thanks to the firm's nationwide reach, your client base will extend well beyond the North West.

Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
