Our Wills, Trusts and Estates team is expanding!

Full Time | Liverpool (with hybrid working)

If you’re an experienced private client lawyer looking to work in a friendly, experienced and well-structured team, we’d love to hear from you!

As one of our largest and most well-established departments, our private client team has an excellent reputation combined with good quality work and a team of experienced and respected lawyers. But we also have ambition to grow! So we are looking for a senior lawyer to join us as we continue to build on our presence in the Merseyside region.

This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced and driven private client lawyer who is ready for a move to a progressive firm where you will be afforded both the autonomy and support to develop professionally and personally, while making an impact.

ABOUT THE ROLE

#1

Private client lawyer

Enjoying high levels of client contact and benefiting from being part of our supportive and collaborative team, you’ll manage a varied caseload and work on a range of complex and high value cases. Responsibilities may vary dependent on your level of experience and skill, however your work will include:

Estate planning and trust advice.
Probate and estate administration.
Lasting Powers of Attorney and living Wills.
Inheritance tax / capital gains tax planning, and care home fee planning.

With an established team in place and a variety of good quality work, this is a role with huge potential as we look to grow and build on our presence in Liverpool.

What we’re looking for

We’d love to talk to you if you are passionate about helping people, are used to running your own caseload and can work autonomously.

To be considered for this role, you must be a qualified Solicitor (or equivalent, e.g. FCILEX) with 5 years plus PQE and a strong background in private client work.
It goes without saying, you also need to be experienced at drafting and reviewing documents, with high levels of accuracy and attention to detail.
You’ll be a highly effective communicator, with the ability to tailor your approach with transparency and sensitivity to your client’s needs.
We’re looking for someone with a collaborative approach and the confidence to also work independently and take ownership.
Although not essential, you will ideally have an established network of contacts and the appetite to grow your network and reputation in the Liverpool area.

This position presents an opportunity to grow, both as an individual, and with our team. You will therefore be able to demonstrate ambition and a desire to play a part in the growth and success of the team.

Why join us?

This is a great opportunity for an experienced Solicitor or Associate who is seeking the structure and support of an established business combined with the opportunity to play a part in developing and growing our private client offering.

What we offer:

At HM3 Legal, our people are our biggest asset and we want to make sure they know this, so alongside our benefits, we also offer a supportive yet autonomous working environment where you’ll be encouraged to innovate and develop.

We are passionate about ‘doing law differently’ with high quality service and having a positive impact being our priorities. If you share our values, then we would love to hear from you.
