Use and maintain case management systems and digital precedents; open and close files, record time and assist with billing, disbursement tracking and fee estimate preparation where required.
Prepare and check correspondence, client letters, statutory forms and court applications; draft probate schedules, estate accounts and trustee resolutions under solicitor supervision where applicable.
Liaise with clients, beneficiaries, executors, trustees, banks, HMRC, estate agents and other third parties to obtain information, chase outstanding matters and progress matters towards resolution; escalate issues as appropriate.
Support fee-earners at client meetings and hearings where necessary; prepare attendance notes, instructions to counsel and bundle documentation for Court of Protection hearings or contested probate matters.
Contribute to continuous improvement by maintaining precedents, checklists and workflows; help identify opportunities to streamline processes and enhance the client experience.
Provide support and guidance to more junior colleagues where appropriate; participate in training and knowledge-sharing to foster a supportive team environment and maintain high standards of client care.

Key skills and experience required:

Qualified solicitor or Legal Executive (CILEX) with demonstrable experience in private client work; with minimum 3 years PQE.
