Job details

James Fay Solicitors is a growing independent law firm based in Dungannon. Due to continued growth, it is seeking to recruit an experienced solicitor to join its team.

The firm is particularly interested in hearing from solicitors with strong experience in conveyancing and wills/probate who are looking for a role within a growing, modern practice.

The Role

The Successful Candidate Will Primarily Deal With

  • Conveyancing, including sales, purchases and remortgages, residential and commercial
  • Wills and estate planning
  • Probate and estate administration
  • General private client work

Experience in family law and/or civil litigation would be advantageous but is not essential.

There will also be scope for the successful candidate to develop their own areas of interest and undertake a broader range of general practice work where appropriate.

About You

Ideally, you will have:

  • 3+ years’ PQE, although candidates with relevant experience at other levels will be considered
  • Strong practical experience in conveyancing and wills/probate
  • The ability to manage your own caseload with a good degree of autonomy
  • Excellent client care and communication skills
  • A professional, practical and commercially minded approach
  • Good organisational skills and attention to detail
  • The ability to work independently while contributing positively to a small team

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.
