Dispute Resolution Solicitor (NQ - 2 years' PQE)
Are you a Dispute Resolution Solicitor looking to broaden your caseload within a firm that genuinely invests in its people? Our client, a multi-office firm with a strong presence across West Kent and East Sussex, is expanding its dispute resolution team and looking for a driven junior solicitor to join them.
About the Role
This Dispute Resolution Solicitor role offers real variety, spanning property-related disputes (boundary, neighbour, party wall, easements and rights of way), landlord and tenant matters (mainly acting for landlords, occasionally tenants, covering possession proceedings, disrepair, rent reviews and lease renewals), inheritance disputes (including will validity and Inheritance Act claims) and general contractual disputes.
You won't need experience across all of these areas from day one, though prior exposure to property or landlord and tenant disputes would be an advantage.
What You'll Be Doing
Interviewing clients and assessing legal problems, with flexibility to meet at any of the firm's offices or at client premises
Advising on costs and ensuring adequate funding is in place
Conducting legal research and drafting papers
Briefing barristers and preparing for hearings
Attending and representing clients at hearings where appropriate
Maintaining files to the required compliance standard
About You
NQ to 2 years' PQE
Comfortable using practice management software such as Actionstep or Advanced Legal
Excellent attention to detail, particularly given the compliance-critical nature of the work
A confident communicator, happy liaising with clients and third parties
Willing to work flexibly across office locations as required (all in close proximity)
What's on Offer
Competitive salary and discretionary bonus scheme
25 days holiday plus bank holidays, extra time off at Christmas, and your birthday off
Private healthcare, death in service cover and an Employee Assistance Programme
Auto-enrolment pension, plus social and charity events throughout the year
