Real Estate Litigation Legal Director | Top 30 International | Clear Route to Partnership
This Top 30 international law firm is offering a rare opportunity for a senior Real Estate Litigation lawyer to step into a Legal Director position in Birmingham with a clearly defined route to Partnership.
With significant national workflow already in place and strong support from an established national team, this role is designed for a senior lawyer looking to build and lead a regional offering without the pressure of bringing a client following on day one.
You will have the platform to grow a team, develop your own practice and work closely with leading partners across the firm's national Real Estate Disputes group.
The Firm
This Top 30 international firm has built an outstanding reputation across the UK and globally for its forward thinking, people focused approach to legal services. The firm holds numerous Legal 500 Top Tier rankings across its key practice areas, reinforcing its position as a true national and international heavyweight.
What differentiates the firm is its innovative and agile approach to delivering legal services. By combining deep sector expertise with advanced legal technology, the firm provides clients with both traditional legal advice and modern, efficient solutions to complex commercial challenges.
Equally important is the firm's commitment to its people. Significant investment is made in training, mentoring and career development at every level, resulting in a high retention rate and a growing number of partners promoted internally. Lawyers are given genuine autonomy alongside strong support from senior leadership, creating an environment where ambitious individuals can progress quickly.
The Role
This is a unique opportunity to join a leading Real Estate Litigation practice within a Top 30 international law firm, based in Birmingham and offering a clear pathway to Partnership.
The wider Real Estate Disputes team is nationally recognised, with multiple Legal 500 rankings and a highly respected head of department. With more than 20 specialist lawyers across the UK, the team already has a strong national platform and consistent workflow.
The firm is now looking to appoint a senior Real Estate Litigation Legal Director to spearhead the continued growth of the Birmingham offering. There is already significant work flowing into the region, meaning a portable client following is not essential. Instead, the focus is on appointing an ambitious senior lawyer with the vision and leadership ability to develop a team and expand the practice locally.
You will work with an impressive client base that includes international retailers, major sports brands, hospitality groups and other large commercial occupiers and landlords. The work is predominantly commercial property litigation, with a smaller element of high value residential disputes.
The team regularly advises on complex and high profile real estate disputes, many of which attract national attention and media coverage.
This role is particularly well suited to a senior Real Estate Litigation lawyer who has reached a ceiling in their current firm and is seeking a genuine route to Partnership within a leading international platform, without the immediate requirement of a personal client following.
Requirements
- You will be a Real Estate Litigation Solicitor with significant experience, typically 8+ years PQE
- Strong technical expertise in commercial property disputes
- Ambition to build and lead a team within a growing regional office
- Strong communication and leadership skills
What's on Offer
- Clear and achievable pathway to Partnership
- Opportunity to lead and grow the Birmingham Real Estate Litigation offering
- Access to a strong national platform and established workflow
- High quality clients and complex disputes work
- Competitive salary, bonus structure and comprehensive benefits
- This is a standout opportunity for a senior Real Estate Litigation lawyer seeking the platform, support and autonomy to build a practice within a leading international law firm.
