Are you a property litigation solicitor looking to handle great quality work?
Are you looking to work within a firm where your progression is on merit, and completely down to you rather than based on structures, numbers and others that may be ‘above' you? Do you want the freedom to express yourself, not to be micromanaged but yet get the support to develop?
If so, read on.
This firm have a strong reputation within the Northern Legal and Business community and are looking for someone to support the partner within their busy property litigation team.
Whilst they need someone with strong technical experience and the ability to take on and run with at least some matters unsupported, they are ideally looking to recruit someone with between 2 and 6 years pqe, or with the equivalent level of experience.
To give you an overview :
The work is for substantial commercial clients, there is a steady flow of quality and varied work which is almost exclusively on commercial matters but isn't just a diet of asset management.
You would get plenty of autonomy, no micromanagement but there is a collegiate approach too.
You will be able to take on responsibility for clients yourself when you are comfortable doing so.
Most of the work is one off pieces of litigation, although the team do undertake 1954 Act work, and there will be some of this, you can be sure that your desk won't be dominated by it.
Clients are diverse, they include both national household brands and more local entrepreneurial clients.
Working with a Property Litigation Partner well-regarded for their work and also as being a very decent person to work with.
Whilst we can never guarantee 9am to 5pm, at this firm it is expected that you'd have a work life balance.
Working alongside a long established and highly regarded commercial property team full of quality individuals.
This role could suit someone :
At a larger firm but now looking to take on more responsibility and operate with more autonomy, or
Someone at a smaller firm, with strong experience but looking for better support and infrastructure and also perhaps a team environment to work within.
If you are interested in finding out more about this newly instructed Property Litigation Solicitor opportunity in Leeds, contact Rachael Mann on 0113 4677111 for a confidential discussion and to find out more about this role.
