Property Litigation Solicitor | 2 PQE | Colchester A respected regional firm with deep roots in the East of England is seeking a Property Litigation Solicitor to join its expanding team in Colchester. Known for combining commercial pragmatism with long-standing client relationships, the firm continues to see increasing demand from landlords, developers, and commercial occupiers across the region. What You'll Be Doing You'll manage a diverse caseload of property disputes, from complex landlord and tenant issues to contested lease renewals, dilapidations, and rent recovery matters. Much of the work has a strong commercial dimension, often involving multi-site portfolios or clients operating across the retail, industrial and investment sectors. You'll act as a trusted advisor to clients who value clear, practical guidance, not just legal analysis. That means helping them understand risks, identify solutions, and make decisions that protect both their property interests and commercial objectives. As part of a close-knit and growing litigation team, you'll have the opportunity to play a meaningful role in client development. Whether that's contributing to seminars, helping with thought leadership, or simply building strong personal relationships, your voice and ideas will carry weight here. About You Qualified Solicitor with at least 2 years' experience in property litigation. A confident communicator, comfortable advising clients directly and handling your own files. Commercially minded, you see the bigger business picture and understand what clients want from their legal partners. Collaborative, grounded, and looking for a firm where your development and contribution genuinely matter. What's on Offer You'll be joining a collegiate team, not in the superficial sense, but in how work is shared, feedback is given, and success is measured. Partners work closely with their teams, discussing cases openly and ensuring workloads are balanced. Junior lawyers are encouraged to speak up and shape how the team evolves as it continues to grow. Career development here is practical and personal. Rather than rigid promotion cycles, progression is based on readiness and performance, with structured support through mentoring and opportunities to lead parts of larger matters as your experience grows. The quality of work is strong and consistent, the firm's established regional presence means a steady flow of complex, high-value instructions, while its size allows you to stay close to your clients and see the impact of your advice first-hand. You'll also benefit from a competitive package, hybrid working, and a focus on wellbeing, with an environment that encourages balance without compromising on ambition. The Firm This is one of the East of England's longest-standing law firms, a name that carries weight locally because of its consistency, integrity, and the relationships it has built over generations. Many of its clients have worked with the firm for decades, often referring new business through word of mouth, a reflection of the trust and accessibility that underpin its reputation. What sets the firm apart is how it delivers legal advice. Its lawyers are encouraged to think commercially, to anticipate problems, and to offer clear, actionable solutions, the kind that help clients make business decisions, not just legal ones. It's an environment where collaboration replaces hierarchy and where people are genuinely supported to grow, not just managed. Apply now or contact Harrison for a confidential discussion.
