Private Client Solicitor upon Tyne - Leading Regional Firm

Private Client Solicitor (2–4 PQE)

North East | Hybrid Working

I’m working with a highly regarded, values-driven commercial law firm in the North East that is looking to recruit a Private Client Solicitor (2–4 PQE) into its growing team.

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a collaborative and forward-thinking firm known for building long‑term relationships with clients and delivering pragmatic, commercially aware advice. The team works closely with individuals, families and business owners on a broad range of private client matters, with a strong emphasis on clear communication, transparency and high‑quality service.

You’ll handle a varied and interesting caseload, advising on:

• Wills, trusts and estate planning
• Probate and estate administration
• Inheritance tax planning and wealth structuring
• Lasting Powers of Attorney and lifetime planning
• Working alongside corporate, real estate and agricultural colleagues on holistic client matters

The work is relationship‑led, meaning you’ll build trusted connections with clients and advisers while developing your own profile within the market.

From my experience working with this firm, what makes them different is their people‑first culture and genuinely modern approach to legal services. They’re a values‑led business with a strong ESG focus, and a reputation for investing in their lawyers long‑term.

• A supportive, collaborative team with strong supervision and mentoring
• High‑quality work without the rigid hierarchy of larger international firms
• Real client exposure and responsibility from day one
• A firm that encourages innovation, development and career progression
• Hybrid working and a flexible, trusting environment

• Qualified Solicitor in England & Wales with 2–4 years’ PQE in Private Client
• Strong technical grounding across wills, probate and estate planning
• Commercially aware with excellent client care skills
• Keen to grow within a progressive, forward‑thinking firm
