CLIENTS AND WORK

The team undertakes a considerable range of work, but tends to focus on public sector clients, such as the police, fire, search and rescue and other emergency services as well as local authorities. With that in mind, the range of work is vast, from relatively straightforward personal injury matters to highly complex multi track matters and some catastrophic work.

A candidate who has a varied experience in EL/PL claims especially one who has experience working in the public sector would be ideal. However, the team is looking to attract a range of candidates who are looking to join a dynamic and highly respected department.  

The successful applicant will likely be someone who has already developed a firm understanding of EL/PL cases. They will also be adept at developing and maintaining key relationships, whilst understanding the pressures faced by public and quasi-public bodies.

The team has grown considerably in size, but has an excellent supportive culture.
