This is an excellent opportunity to join a growing team handling a varied caseload of litigated Road Traffic Accident (RTA) matters. You'll work in a supportive environment where quality legal work, client care and career development are genuinely valued.

\n

Whether you're looking for greater autonomy, higher-quality work or the next step in your personal injury career, this role offers the opportunity to make a real impact within an ambitious and expanding practice.

  • \n
  • Litigated Part 7 and Part 8 matters.
  • \n
  • Liability and quantum disputes.
  • \n
  • Pre and post-litigation case management through to settlement or Trial where appropriate.
  • \n
\n

This is a busy and rewarding role that will suit someone who enjoys taking ownership of their files while delivering exceptional client care.

\n

Key Responsibilities:

\n
    \n
  • Manage your own caseload from liability decision through to settlement.
  • \n
  • Handle litigated personal injury claims through all stages of the process.

  • Prepare Trial bundles and comply with Court directions.
  • \n
  • Accurately value general and special damages.
  • \n
  • Identify litigation opportunities and develop effective case strategies.
  • \n
  • Deliver excellent client service throughout every stage of the claim.
  • \n
  • Meet commercial and performance objectives while maintaining high technical standards.

  • \n
  • A proactive and client-focused approach to case management.
