At Fisher Jones Greenwood, our people are the heart of our success. We foster a collaborative culture across all our 7 Essex locations, and our passion for providing excellence in legal services is undeniable. We became part of the Lawfront group in 2021 and have benefitted from investment, ambition and growth ever since. Currently we’re looking to grow our successful Dispute Resolution team based in Chelmsford.
So why join us? In addition to getting the opportunity to work with exceptionally talented people who will genuinely add value to your career and exposure, you’ll be a part of a fast-growing, well-financed and invested business with huge ambition, but with comparatively low billable targets, meaning that you’ll definitely benefit from a well-adjusted work/life balance. We offer a very competitive salary that will be reflective of your experience and ability. We have a range of benefits but also offer the ability to flex this based on your needs and wants. In addition, you can expect excellent ongoing training and mentoring to help you achieve your professional goals and a state-of-the-art case management system to make your work more efficient and easier to manage.
The Role
As part of an ambitious department, you will advise on various contentious civil and commercial matters, including property and construction disputes, contentious probate matters, cohabitee disputes, debt recovery, negligence-related matters, partnership, director and shareholder disputes. You will be expected to manage your own disputes and caseload, get exposure to complex transactions at an early stage by supporting senior team members, and actively engage in business development to grow both your own and the firm’s network.
What about you?
You’ll ideally come from a Dispute Resolution background in a well-regarded law firm. Likely you’ll be around 3+ years PQE, but we are flexible for the right person. Importantly, you’ll have the ability to offer advice that will achieve the best result for the client. With a proactive and self-motivated approach, you’ll have the ability to build lasting relationships with clients and colleagues.
