There are over 160,000 in-house solicitors¹ in the UK, most of them on payroll. As a member of staff, you’ll enjoy all the statutory benefits of a salaried employee, as you rise through the ranks. As your career progresses, you can start to plan for a rewarding, stimulating career and start to build your personal wealth for the years to come.

It’s a time of life when there’s a lot going on and not enough hours in the day – or night! Many solicitors are also buying their first home, getting married or setting up home with a partner, or thinking about starting a family. All are big life decisions, and you want to be sure that you can afford to do everything you dream of. We help you to plan well ahead for school and university fees, adventure holidays, and dream homes. Plus we’ll help you navigate the mortgage minefield, and make the right choice now, and for your future plans.

It’s not too early to start investing more into your workplace pension or starting a private pension as well. By this stage, you may have moved jobs several times, and you may have accumulated a number of smaller pension pots at several practices, almost without realising. Talking to one of our advisers about your long-term plans for the future and beginning to pension plan at this stage in your career will put you ahead of the game, and give you real confidence and control over your future.

Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage.

The value of an investment with St. James's Place will be directly linked to the performance of the funds selected and may fall as well as rise. You may get back less than the amount invested.
