Senior Wills & Estates Lawyer - Succession Opportunity

Sydney | Established Firm | Existing Client Base

A rare opportunity for an experienced Wills & Estates lawyer to step into an established practice with a significant existing client base and a explicit succession opportunity. With two senior Partners approaching retirement, the firm is looking for an experienced lawyer to work alongside them, build relationships with their clients and ultimately take on an established book of work.

For someone looking for a long-term move, there's a lot to like about this one.

The Opportunity

The practice advises a sophisticated client base including high-net-worth individuals, families and family offices.

The work covers

- Complex estate planning
- Wills and testamentary trusts
- Estate administration
- Succession planning
- Structuring for high-net-worth clients
- Related tax and wealth planning matters

You'll initially work closely with the existing Partners, giving you time to understand the practice and build relationships with clients before taking on greater responsibility for the portfolio. You'll also work alongside an Accredited Specialist and have access to expertise across the wider firm.

Why Consider It?

- Established book of clients to inherit




- Clear succession opportunity as two Partners retire
- High-net-worth and family office client base
- Sophisticated Wills & Estates work
- Work alongside an Accredited Specialist
- Established firm and existing referral network
- Direct client relationships from the outset
- Three days per week in the office following the initial handover period
- Occasional interstate travel
- Long-term opportunity to take ownership of an established practice

About You

This is aimed at a senior Wills & Estates lawyer who is comfortable managing sophisticated clients and complex estate planning matters. Experience in tax or succession planning would be highly regarded, but isn't essential.

More importantly, you'll be someone who enjoys building long-term client relationships and is ready to take on greater ownership of a well-established practice.
