We offer a highly competitive commission structure in which every lawyer receives a percentage of each successful case—without caps or hurdles—ensuring you are rewarded for every completion.

Assess liability and quantum, obtain expert evidence, and prepare schedules of loss.

Attend hearings, mediations, and settlement meetings when necessary.

Maintain strong, supportive client communication throughout the life of each case.

Ensure cases progress efficiently and comply with internal, SRA, and FCA requirements where applicable.

Utilise case management systems and digital workflows effectively.

Person Specification

Proven experience handling housing disrepair or civil litigation matters.

Strong knowledge of pre-action protocols, CPR, and evidential requirements.

Excellent drafting, negotiation, and advocacy skills.

Strong organisational and time-management abilities.

Experience supporting vulnerable clients.

Experience using case management software; Proclaim experience is an advantage.

Demonstrated ability to manage litigated cases from start to finish

Genuine tenacity and a proactive approach.

Solid understanding of civil procedure rules and litigation trends, with the ability to apply them strategically.

Salary & Hours
