The role offers strong client contact, responsibility from an early stage, and the opportunity to build a visible profile within the practice.
The Ideal Candidate

* Background in both commercial and residential landlord and tenant disputes
* Experience with easements, covenants, beneficial interest and Party Wall disputes
* Commercially aware and confident handling files independently
