Family Solicitor | 1+ PQE | Bournemouth

Some firms treat family law like a processing plant. This one treats it like what it is: guiding people through the hardest moments of their lives with skill, empathy, and genuine care.

A well-established specialist practice with offices across the South is expanding its Bournemouth team. You'll join a close-knit department handling the full spectrum of family work, amicable separations, complex financial disputes, sensitive children matters with the autonomy to run your own files and senior mentors who actually invest in developing you.

This firm has built its reputation on compassion, modern thinking, and nurturing its lawyers. Clients return because they trust the team. You'll be encouraged to build those relationships too, becoming part of the community as much as the firm.

The Work

Broad, high-quality family law with real autonomy:

  • Divorce and financial settlements
  • Children arrangements and private family disputes
  • Cohabitation and pre/post-nuptial agreements
  • Run your own files with senior support on complex matters
  • Build long-term client relationships rooted in trust

You'll have the freedom to manage cases your way, backed by specialists who genuinely enjoy mentoring.
You

  • 1+ PQE as a Family Solicitor
  • Excellent communicator, calm, practical, empathetic
  • Organised, detail-focused, confident managing your own caseload
  • Ambitious team player eager to contribute to Bournemouth's growth

What You Get

  • Competitive salary with realistic performance bonus
  • Private medical insurance, enhanced pension, critical illness cover
  • Hybrid and flexible working that fits real life
  • Clear development plans with leadership training access
  • Collaborative culture that rewards initiative and backs long-term progression

If you want a role where your work genuinely matters and your career is actively supported, not just talked about in appraisals, this is it.

Apply now for immediate consideration.
