Senior Family Solicitor

A well-regarded Sussex law firm is looking to strengthen its established Family team with an experienced Family Solicitor.

This is a genuine opportunity for a Family lawyer looking for high-quality work, strong client relationships, and a clear route to progression. The level is flexible, with the potential to join as an Associate, Senior Associate, or Salaried Partner depending on experience.

You’ll work across a varied caseload including financial remedy, complex assets, children matters, cohabitation disputes, and pre/post-nuptial agreements, with exposure to a strong HNW client base.

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.
