Co-Founder & Partner / New Law Firm / Conveyancing Solicitor
Launch & Lead a New Law Firm with Guaranteed Workflow
As the Conveyancing Solicitor Co-Founder & Partner you will build and lead a new conveyancing firm with guaranteed workflow, platform firm compliance from day one, and a clear route to ABS authorisation and ownership.
Ideal for an experienced conveyancer ready to step out of fee earning-only roles and into true partnership.
Location: Exeter
Structure: Equity / Partnership Opportunity
Legal Experience: Conveyancing
Income: Year 1: £80,000, Year 2: £120,000, Year 3: £200,000
The Opportunity | Conveyancing Solicitor Co-Founder & Partner
We are seeking an experienced Conveyancing Solicitor or Licensed Conveyancer who is ready to step into a founding partner role and help launch a new practice.
This is a rare opportunity to build and lead your own firm, with an established partner, without the usual early-stage risks around regulation, infrastructure, or lead generation.
The Background | Conveyancing Solicitor Co-Founder & Partner
A fellow founder of the business has an established finance brokerage with a consistent, high quality lead flow across residential and specialist lending. We already have:
• A guaranteed pipeline of conveyancing, Estate planning and Will Writing work
• A formal agreement with an established platform legal firm, allowing us to trade compliantly from day one
• A defined plan to launch our own regulated law firm via an ABS application with the SRA
For the first 12 months, the firm will trade under the platform firm’s regulatory umbrella while the ABS application progresses. The successful candidate will be central to shaping the firm’s culture, processes, pricing, and future direction.
The Role
As Founding Legal Partner, you will:
• Act as the senior legal lead for the practice
• Oversee and deliver residential conveyancing matters, Estate Planning and Will Writing (initially with direct case involvement)
• Help design and implement workflows, standards, and client experience
• Work alongside the other founders to build out the team, systems, and commercial strategy
• Play a key role in the ABS application process and transition to full independent regulation
• Ultimately become a partner/director in the newly authorised firm
• This role is ideal for someone who enjoys building, not just processing.
Who This Is For
• This opportunity will particularly appeal to someone who:
• Has PQE in conveyancing (solicitor or licensed conveyancer)
• Is currently a senior associate, salaried partner, or frustrated fee earner
• Wants equity, influence, and autonomy, not just a caseload
Has the ambition to own and grow a firm, not simply work within one
Prior partnership experience is not essential - mindset and capability matter more than title
What Makes This Different
• Guaranteed workflow from day one (no cold start)
• No need to personally fund premises, marketing, or initial infrastructure
• Regulatory risk mitigated through platform firm trading model
• A genuine opportunity to co found a law firm, not join a committee
• Long term equity and profit participation
Remuneration & Structure
• Equity / partnership stake in the new firm
• Profit participation
• Terms to be agreed collaboratively with the right candidate
Next Steps
This is a confidential conversation, not a traditional recruitment process. The company is keen to speak with individuals who are curious about what building something of their own could look like, even if they haven’t actively been “job hunting”.
