Private Client Lawyer

Opportunity: Private Client Lawyer

Location: Devon

Salary: Up to £100,000 + Individual Performance Bonus (DOE)

If you're a Private Client lawyer who thrives on meaningful work and wants to feel genuinely valued - not just in words, but in salary, benefits and progression, this might just be the move you've been waiting for!

This long-established, community-driven firm with multiple offices across Devon is seeking an experienced Private Client Solicitor or Cilex Lawyer. STEP members, or those working towards it, are especially encouraged to apply.

You will be stepping into a busy, well-respected team handling everything from estate planning and wills (including IHT mitigation and trusts), to LPAs, elderly client services, trust advice and estate administration. If you take pride in your client relationships and want to grow with a forward-thinking firm, this is the place to do it.

What Is on Offer?

This isn't your average high-street role. This firm is actively investing in its people with:

• A performance-based bonus scheme for fee earners (up to £10k annually)
• Clear and inclusive progression routes
• Flexible working and a strong emphasis on work-life balance
• Christmas shutdown (outside holiday allowance)
• Sunny Day policies and 4pm Friday finishes throughout August
• Enhanced maternity pay & family-first ethos
• Discounted legal services, paid eye tests & glasses contributions

You'll be joining a team where partnership is truly attainable, and success is recognised in all forms, not just billing targets.

Who We Are Looking For:

• 2+ years' PQE
• Strong experience across wills, probate, trusts, LPAs and estate planning
• A calm, empathetic and client-focused communicator
• Someone who thrives in a busy environment and enjoys ownership of their caseload
• A real team player with a proactive, positive approach
