This established Wolverhampton-based law firm is seeking a Private Client Solicitor to join their warm, collaborative team – and this could be your next big career move. This is a standout opportunity suitable for solicitors with 3PQE+ who are passionate about private client work and eager to push their career forward in 2025.

The Role

You’ll handle a varied and interesting caseload including:

• A team that values trust, autonomy, and professional development
• A practice that invests in its people and is proud of its friendly, non-corporate feel

This is a place where you can make a real impact—not just another cog in the machine.

• Flexible salary – competitive and tailored to your experience
• Support with professional development, including STEP
