The contentious function sits under the Private Client department but are an entirely separate group with what they do. The team is headed up by two Partners who are directory rated and have both created a strong footprint within the practice area. They are now looking to recruit a junior Private Client Associate who is ambitious and wishes to continue/move to a solely contentious position.
The Partners are well experienced and can therefore offer endless training, allowing for this individual to be at the front line of big ticket trust and estate litigation cases with full support. Defusing and resolving family and trust disputes (including through alternative dispute resolution such as mediation) will be an essential part of the role as well as a good understanding of the Civil Procedure Rules.
In order to apply for this position, you must:
- Have excellent academics and trained at a highly regarded city or west end law firm
- Have between 1-3 years experience within trust and estate litigation
- welcome direct client contact
This is a fantastic opportunity for a junior lawyer to take a step forward in their career and gain hands of experience with big value litigation cases.
