Senior Family Solicitor | 8+ PQE | Milton Keynes

A highly regarded regional law firm is looking to appoint a Senior Family Solicitor to strengthen its established Family team. This is a standout opportunity for an experienced family lawyer seeking high-quality work, autonomy, and long-term career stability within a supportive and progressive practice.

The Role

This position offers exposure to a varied and stimulating family law caseload, with a particular focus on:

• Complex divorce and separation cases

• High-value financial settlements

• Property disputes following relationship breakdown

• Private children matters and maintenance issues

• Advising clients on sensitive and emotionally charged situations

• Negotiation, mediation, and court representation

You will manage your own caseload while playing an integral role in the wider team, contributing to the development of junior lawyers and helping shape the department's continued growth.

What the Firm Is Looking For

• A Family Solicitor with 8+ years' PQE

• Experienced in acting for high-net-worth individuals

• Confident handling complex financial and property disputes alongside children matters

• Commercially minded, organised, and comfortable working to deadlines

• A natural mentor with the ability to support and guide junior colleagues

• A strong communicator who values client care and relationship building

• Adaptable, proactive, and comfortable in a professional, fast-moving environment

This is an opportunity to take ownership of high-quality private family work within a firm that values experience, judgment, and professionalism. You'll have the autonomy expected at this level, the support of an established team, and the security of a firm committed to long-term growth rather than short-term targets.
