Full job description

Contentious Probate Solicitor

As part of our continued growth, we are seeking an experienced and motivated Contentious Probate Solicitor (5+ PQE) to join our expanding Private Client function on a full‑time basis.

At Bell Lamb & Joynson, contentious probate is a growing area of work. The department advises clients on a wide range of inheritance and estate‑related disputes, including will challenges, Inheritance Act claims, executor and trustee disputes, and estate administration conflicts. We want to build a reputation delivering advice that is clear, pragmatic, and firmly grounded in achieving the best possible outcome, whether through negotiation, mediation, or litigation where required.

The role is initially office‑based, moving to a hybrid arrangement following completion of probation. The successful candidate will manage their own varied caseload with minimal supervision and play an active role in more complex matters. You will be confident handling emotionally sensitive issues, building strong client relationships, and balancing robust legal analysis with a commercial and proportionate approach to dispute resolution.

Strong drafting, advocacy, and communication skills are essential, together with the ability to mentor junior colleagues and contribute to the wider development of the department.

About Us

Established in 1821, Bell Lamb & Joynson is a long‑established firm that continues to grow and evolve. We’re one of the fastest‑growing traditional high street firms across Merseyside, North Cheshire, and the surrounding areas, with our success driven by great service, strong client relationships, and the people who deliver them.

We work hard to create a supportive, down‑to‑earth environment where colleagues are trusted to work commercially, make sound decisions, and take ownership of their files. As the firm continues to grow, so do the opportunities within it, and many of our current team members have built long‑term careers here, developing their expertise, broadening their responsibilities, and progressing in a way that feels sustainable and rewarding.

What you will do in your working day

Managing your own caseload of contentious probate and inheritance disputes
Advising clients clearly and sensitively on claims, strategy, risk, and costs
Drafting correspondence, statements of case, witness statements, and settlement proposals
Liaising with opposing solicitors, Counsel, experts, and the courts
Preparing matters for negotiation, mediation, or litigation as appropriate
Progressing files efficiently in line with procedural deadlines
Supervising and supporting junior colleagues where required
Maintaining accurate file management, time recording, and compliance standards
Contributing to the ongoing growth and development of the contentious probate offering

The role requires the following:

Qualified Solicitor with 5+ PQE and experience in contentious probate / inheritance disputes
Strong technical knowledge of will challenges, Inheritance Act claims, and estate‑related disputes
Ability to manage a caseload independently from instruction to resolution
Calm, professional approach with excellent client‑care skills
Strong drafting and communication skills
Organised, proactive, and solutions‑focused
Collaborative mindset and willingness to support team development
Commitment to high standards of compliance and quality

Why Join Us?

A supportive, inclusive, and forward‑thinking culture.
Competitive salary £45K - £55K DOE
Career development and progression opportunities.
Flexible hybrid working.
25 days holiday plus Bank Holidays and Christmas Shutdown.
Discounted legal services for friends, and family.
Firm pension policy.
Private Medical insurance.
Death in service benefit.
24/7 GP access.

Pay: £45,000.00-£55,000.00 per hour

Benefits:

Free parking
Health & wellbeing programme
On-site parking
Private medical insurance
Sick pay

Work Location: Hybrid remote in Runcorn WA7 2SX
