We are currently recruiting for an exciting private client role with our client, a leading Scottish law firm. This role involves joining their Edinburgh practice as an additional Lawyer to support their expanding team.

The successful candidate will gain exposure to a broad range of private client work, including powers of attorney, trusts, asset management, tax, wills, and estate planning. Key duties and responsibilities include, but are not limited to:

Advising families on optimal structures for asset ownership (e.g., trusts, partnerships, family investment companies).
Providing tax planning guidance in collaboration with clients’ existing advisors.
Drafting accurate and precise legal documents related to governance, asset protection, succession, and tax planning.
Working closely with accountants, wealth planners, and other professionals to deliver tailored solutions.
Managing an independent caseload while contributing to broader team initiatives.

The firm is seeking a lawyer from NQ level up to 3 years’ PQE, who is qualified in Scotland or England & Wales, or holds dual qualification. Prior experience in private client work, particularly involving trusts, is beneficial. While experience with high-net-worth clients would also be viewed favourably, but is again not essential.

If you are interested in this opportunity, please contact either Steph or Jade for a confidential discussion. (Assignment 16817)
