Partner - Family Law Join the fastest-growing specialist family law firm in the country. We offer unlimited progression opportunities, wellbeing, growth and a supportive place to work. I'm Interested Feeling like you’ve hit a glass ceiling? Maybe you want more flexibility, better development and progression, or simply a firm that listens. At Unified, we’re here to change that. Perhaps you're a Special Counsel who's built strong technical skills, developed trusted client relationships, mentored junior lawyers and consistently delivered results. Yet despite your contribution, a clear pathway to Partnership still feels out of reach. Or perhaps you're a Partner but find yourself spending too much time on business development, networking and administration, rather than practising family law. We've partnered with Stowe, the UK’s largest family law firm, but we don’t act like a big corporate machine. We’re putting in place development programmes for every stage of your career, implemented hybrid working, and we’re reviewing our benefits packages so you’ll feel supported, valued, and we’ll accelerate your career. Here’s why we're growing, and what makes us stand out: Hybrid working and work life balance Work from home, from the office, or a mix of both with realistic targets and a focus on what you actually enjoy doing; giving excellent client care and quality outcomes for clients, not admin tasks. Real progression If you’re ready to grow, we’ll help you make it happen. We have biannual promotion windows and clear development paths, so progression isn’t something you have to chase; it’s part of how we work. No “one in one out” before promotion, our growth consistently opens up new opportunities. Dedicated support around you You’ll have admin, billing, and new business enquiry teams behind you, so you can focus on your clients and the rewarding parts of family law. Family law is all we do . Our lawyers work alongside highly experienced team of family law professionals, working across the full spectrum of family law matters, from parenting and property disputes through to complex financial arrangements, family violence matters, international asset structures and high-net-worth cases.
