Private Family Lawyer
Berkshire | Hybrid Working | Excellent Progression
I’m working with a long-established, forward-thinking law firm that is looking to recruit a Family Lawyer to join its growing and highly supportive Family team.
This is a brilliant opportunity for someone who wants to step into a high-quality caseload within a genuinely flexible, people-first environment, without sacrificing the standard or complexity of work.
The Role
You’ll take ownership of your own caseload of private family matters, supported by experienced colleagues and strong administrative support. The work is varied and includes complex, often mid to high-net-worth financial cases alongside broader private family matters.
You’ll be involved in:
- Managing your own caseload from instruction through to resolution
- Advising on both negotiated outcomes and court proceedings
- Supporting clients through sensitive and often complex issues
- Working with ADR where appropriate, alongside litigation when required
- Building strong, trusted client relationships
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.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Membership of Resolution is preferred, or a willingness to join and adopt its collaborative approach.
The Culture
This is a firm with a genuinely strong reputation for culture and retention. Many of the team have joined from London firms and stayed because of the improved work-life balance and supportive environment.
You’ll be joining a team that values trust, flexibility and quality over volume, with a clear focus on doing good work in a sustainable way.
Benefits
- Competitive salary: £55,000 - £65,000 depending on experience
- Hybrid working (2 days per week in the office)
- Genuine flexibility around personal commitments
- Strong individual bonus scheme (with high uptake across the team)
- Firm-wide bonus
- 25 days holiday + bank holidays (increasing to 30 with service)
- Christmas closure
- Birthday half-day + wellness day
- Private medical insurance after 1 year
- Regular social and charity events
- Flexible, family-friendly culture

If you’re a Family Lawyer and looking for a role where you can do high-quality work in a genuinely supportive and balanced environment, I’d be happy to have a confidential conversation.
