Family Solicitor

£40k - £80k per annum
Full-time
Leeds

Family Solicitor – West Yorkshire


A leading specialist family law practice with a strong presence across Yorkshire is seeking an experienced Senior Childcare Solicitor (10+ PQE) to join one of its offices in West Yorkshire.

This is a senior-level opportunity for an ambitious Solicitor looking to take on a key role within a highly respected public family law team renowned for its expertise in complex children matters, care proceedings and legally aided work.

The firm has built an outstanding reputation for delivering high-quality representation across all aspects of family law, with particular strengths in childcare, domestic abuse and public law proceedings. Its lawyers are recognised for combining technical excellence with a compassionate, client-focused approach, supporting vulnerable families through highly sensitive and often challenging circumstances.

You will handle a varied and complex caseload of public children matters, including Care Proceedings, Child Arrangements disputes, non-accidental injury cases and other Children Act matters. The role offers the opportunity to supervise and mentor junior lawyers, contribute to the continued growth of the department and play an active role in maintaining the firm’s exceptional standards of client care.

You will be an experienced Family or Childcare Solicitor with at least 10 years’ PQE and a strong background in public children work. Children Panel membership or Resolution/Family Panel accreditation would be highly advantageous, although experienced applicants working towards accreditation will also be considered. Strong advocacy skills, leadership capability and experience handling legally aided matters are essential.

The firm offers a genuinely supportive and flexible working environment, recognising the importance of work-life balance while continuing to invest heavily in employee wellbeing, progression and long-term career development.

Benefits include:

  • Competitive senior-level salary and remuneration package
  • Up to 25 days’ annual leave plus bank holidays
  • Additional birthday leave, with long-service rewards
  • Pension scheme with employer contributions
  • Hybrid and flexible working arrangements
  • Payment of practising certificate, professional subscriptions and panel accreditations
  • Employee wellbeing support and assistance programme
  • Staff referral bonus scheme and corporate discounts
  • Discounted legal services
  • Fully funded summer and Christmas social events
  • Modern office environments with strong administrative and technical support
  • Genuine progression opportunities within an expanding specialist family law practice

This is an excellent opportunity for a Senior Solicitor seeking high-quality childcare work, a collaborative culture and the chance to play a significant role within a progressive and respected family law firm.

To apply, please submit your CV via the advert or contact Rachael Atherton at G2 Legal Recruitment for a confidential discussion.
