We’re looking for an associate family law solicitor to join us at Co-op Legal Services, as part of our growing Family Law team.
At Co-op Legal Services, we do things differently. We’re passionate about providing an exceptional client experience, and our Family department has a 4.8/5 Trustpilot rating owing to that.

What you’ll do

- Qualified as solicitor / CILEX qualified, with experience handling privately funded family law matters.
- Solid technical knowledge of divorce, separation, financial settlements, cohabitation, and children law.
- Experience using a case management system.
- Good communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to build positive relationships with partners up to senior level.
- Good attention to detail and a strong customer focus.
