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 with a minimum of 2 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.
