The team is seeking an experienced solicitor with a minimum of five years’ post-qualification experience and a strong background in commercial litigation.

The Firm

This long-established and highly regarded litigation boutique is home to a close-knit team of internationally minded lawyers who share a passion for complex disputes. The firm advises clients across a broad range of issues, including:

  • A strong commercial litigation background, ideally with exposure to international or cross-border disputes
  • Strong academic credentials
  • A solid understanding of the Civil Procedure Rules
  • A genuine interest in working within an internationally focused disputes practice
  • A willingness to contribute to business development initiatives
  • Experience supervising or mentoring junior lawyers, or an enthusiasm to do so

This is an excellent opportunity for an ambitious disputes lawyer looking to join a specialist firm and work on some of the most significant and complex litigation matters in the UK and internationally.
