IDR Law aims to be a place where everyone is fully engaged. To have a team that is happy, healthy and successful in their own definition.

Featured Vacancies
Whilst IDR Law remains the only law firm dealing exclusively with contentious wills, trust and probate work, our plans are to grow significantly over the next 3 years – we are always interested in speaking with quality specialist CP lawyers at every level from NQ onwards. Our roles are set out below but there is no substitute for talking with us as we develop at speed – get in touch confidentially for a chat by contacting our Head of People and Development, Eleanor Stenson on [email protected] or our Founder and CEO, Martin Holdsworth on [email protected].
We recruit lawyers and support team members who take their work seriously, but rarely themselves. We have worked hard at creating a team with an easy-going style that operates at the highest of commercial and legal standards. With 95% B2B work referral sources and minority PE backing, IDR Law is in the perfect place to take advantage of being the only law firm in the UK that only deals with resolving inheritance disputes and nothing else. Our growth strategy is such that we expect our legal team to be extended by a further 12 experienced CP lawyers along with supporting roles over the next 3 years. #itsallwedo
We do things differently at IDR
Our Familyflex Operation has been in effect since our founding in 2017 –well before COVID 19 forced everyone else to offer work/home working! / “I am ambitious, but it is very important for me to be around my young family”.
Our experienced lawyers can choose how many billable hours per week they can manage with home commitments from time to time – 5 billable hours is one day’s salary and so on / And if you work more than your agreed billable hours across a month, you get paid overtime for the billable hours worked!
Our easy-going style is supported by always looking for the balanced win:win in everything we do – the legal team, clients, referrers and the firm itself operate on that basis / IF something isn’t working on a win:win basis we don’t do it!
We play to everyone’s strengths and help develop skill sets that each team member excels in. Our culture is transparent, focused and kind. / “They are supportive and understanding especially when it comes to career progression and enhancing the strengths you already possess”.
Career advancement and rewards are never limited by other legal departments or changes of owners and leaders / Contentious probate is all we do – every minute and every £ is spent on developing our services into this sector.
We are market leaders in Contentious Probate work and have no intention of stopping our success trajectory / “It is clear that training needs are really put at the forefront here – I love the outlook of IDR Law in comparison to other law firms.”
Wondered why even the biggest firms struggle to produce CP legal teams that are even half the size of the IDR Law legal team? / We are a 95% B2B Referral based law firm with a network of over 1,200 members who have engaged with us to provide CP support. Many other firms rely heavily on PPC campaigns.
IDR Law leads the way in developing innovative LegalTech products for the NCP referrer market / Sign up to our IDRN support network and look at our award winning Claim Checker and/or IDR Law Protect suite of services!
Our systems have been robustly built and produce tracking and BI/MI data across the whole life cycle of a case – from marketing to closure / Our Triage team deal with enquiries so you can focus on dealing with the Grade A & B cases coming through
