The role...
We are looking to recruit an Assistant Lawyer to join our Multi-Track Accident team in Nottingham.
The successful candidate will support on a varied caseload of multi-track personal injury matters while also managing their own files. This will initially focus on intermediate, non-issued cases, with a view to progressing to issued matters over time as experience develops. Appropriate supervision and support will be provided throughout.
The role will involve assisting on existing complex cases as well as taking responsibility for progressing your own caseload. You will gain exposure across the full lifecycle of personal injury claims, from initial instruction through to resolution, and play an active role within a busy and supportive team.
