Personal Injury Legal Assistant

Personal Injury Paralegal -Leeds

I am seeking applications from enthusiastic and driven Paralegals to undertake a role within a busy Personal Injury team with a firm of Solicitors in Leeds. This is an excellent opportunity to join firm and develop some career building skills.

Day to day you will be supporting a more senior Fee Earner or Solicitor with their caseload of a variety of EL/PL and RTA work. You will be taking first instructions, statements of loss, dealing with a range of paperwork to progress the claim and liaising with people both over the phone and face to face. The ideal candidate will have experience of using the MOJ portal.

The firm is a well known and long established regional law firm with multiple offices in the Yorkshire area.

The successful candidate need not have a law degree but must have good GCSE results (or equivalent). Previous experience of working in a legal envirionment would be a distinct advantage. What is essential is a professional manner, good communication and keyboard skills and a desire to develop skills in Personal Injury law by undertaking any relevant training.
