Current vacancies

We’re seeking a Junior Solicitor with a criminal law background to join our growing team in Barry.
You don’t need experience in tree law — we’ll teach you that. 

What we need is someone who’s confident with court processes, hearings, advocacy, and case management.

You’ll work closely with our senior solicitors on a range of cases involving planning enforcement, environmental law, and local authority prosecutions. The role is office-based, giving you hands-on experience, mentoring, and the chance to develop your legal career in a unique and positive field.

Key Responsibilities

• Prepare and manage case files relating to planning, environmental, and enforcement matters.
• Attend and assist with court hearings and tribunal proceedings.
• Liaise with clients, barristers, and expert witnesses.
• Draft legal documents, witness statements, and correspondence.
• Conduct legal research and support senior solicitors in case preparation.
• Contribute to the firm’s broader mission of promoting environmental responsibility through law.

About You

• Qualified Solicitor (1–5 years PQE).
• Experience in criminal law, advocacy, or litigation.
• Strong understanding of court processes and case management.
• Excellent communication and organisational skills.
• A proactive, curious mindset with an interest in expanding into environmental or planning law.
• Based locally or willing to commute to our Barry office.
