Job Description
Commercial Property Disputes Solicitor – Leeds
Amazing opportunity to join a top tier Law firm in Leeds as part of its Commercial Property Disputes team.
I’m working with a leading national law firm in Leeds that is looking to strengthen its Real Estate Litigation team with the hire of a bright Associate (1–3 years PQE).
This is a fantastic opportunity to join a highly regarded practice that is regularly instructed on complex, high-profile disputes for blue-chip clients. The team is especially active in cutting-edge areas, including litigation arising from the Building Safety Act 2022, so you’ll be exposed to some of the most topical work in the market.
What’s on offer?
* Competitive salary with an annual bonus of up to 35%
* Lower billable hours target (1,350) than many comparable firms, supporting work-life balance
* Hybrid working (expected office presence 40–60%)
* Generous holiday entitlement – 25 days plus bank holidays, rising to 31 with service, plus the option to buy/sell leave
* Private medical insurance via BUPA (no compulsory excess)
* Enhanced pension contributions and 4x salary life assurance
* Paid sabbatical scheme after 2–3 years of service
What the firm is looking for
* A qualified Solicitor with 1–3 years’ PQE in real estate litigation
* Solid experience across commercial property disputes (landlord & tenant, development, enfranchisement, building safety, etc)
* A client-focused approach and the ability to build strong relationships
* Someone ambitious, collaborative and looking to develop within a top-tier team
Why this role?
The Real Estate Litigation Group is recognised for its market-leading expertise and its close links with the wider Real Estate practice. The team’s work is high-quality and diverse, giving you the chance to develop quickly with plenty of partner and client exposure.
