Associate - Property Disputes
Responsibilities for this role include but are not limited to:
About the role
The team work across the full spectrum of property litigation (including construction related disputes), working closely with colleagues across the real estate division. Clients include landed estates, charities, developers and pension funds. Working alongside lawyers recognised for their expertise in the field, the role would offer an excellent opportunity to continue your personal development working alongside them and the chance to further build your practice/personal brand in this sector. Our lawyers are also well supported with an internal infrastructure (including utilising the latest legal technology), that will allow you to focus on providing 1st class client care and legal expertise.
About you
This role would be ideal for an associate level candidate with some previous property litigation experience. As a firm, we pride ourselves on making a difference to our clients. Our lawyers are therefore passionate about providing empathic client care and commercially minded legal advice. A passion for business development and promoting your own personal brand will also be beneficial as well as an interest in legal technology as we look for ways to streamline and reduce the effort to serve our clients. In return, you will be joining the highest ranked property disputes team in the South-East and also the largest (meaning you would have exposure to a wide variety of property litigation work), and a firm who welcome diversity of thought and champion ideas.
You'll spend at least 60% of your working week in the office, though we know there is no one-size-fits-all and arrangements may vary from role to role. Our strong culture is founded on working together in the office, which we aim to maintain through our people being regularly co-located, working cohesively and in collaboration with one another.
