Agricultural team, well-regarded for the work it does in this area of law is seeking to recruit an Agricultural Litigation Solicitor of between 0 and 4 years’ PQE. The team is based in Bristol and they require a Solicitor to join them to provide support to their clients who face litigious disputes; you will be acting for farmers, landowners and agri-businesses. Working directly with Partners and Associates, you will support them with progressing matters on high profile, bigger cases, but you will be expected to run your own caseload (with varying supervision depending on your PQE). The type of work you will be exposed to includes farm partnership disputes, inheritance disputes, contractual disputes, negligence and nuisance claims. You will ensure that everything is dealt with in a timely and efficient way with the client focus that is synonymous with the firm’s ethos.
Ideally you will have an agricultural or rural background, but this isn’t essential; what you will need is litigious experience gained through your training contract or post qualification, a can do, proactive attitude, the ability to use your own initiative but also be a great team player. Being a trusted legal partner to the clients they advise, they’re looking for someone who can build that rapport and relationship with the clients they will be supporting. Therefore, they need someone on board who is able to excel in relationship building.
