The opportunity

TSR Legal have recently been instructed by a well-regarded high street law firm based in Newport who are looking for an NQ-2 PQE Family Solicitor to join the expanding Family department.

As a Family Solicitor, you will be responsible for handling a broad Family caseload, including dealing with high net-worth family matters including private law children matters and matrimonial finance matters.

This role will ideally suit an individual with a ‘can do’ attitude, friendly and professional manner with experience of working in Family law within your training contract or since qualification.

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.
