CRA Consulting is delighted to be working with a leading national claimant law firm that is continuing to invest heavily in the growth of its highly regarded Serious Injury practice.
If you're an experienced Serious Injury Solicitor looking to handle genuinely complex, life-changing RTA claims without the pressure of individual billing targets, this is an opportunity well worth exploring.
This specialist team has built an outstanding reputation for handling high-value, complex injury work and offers a collaborative environment where lawyers are given the time, autonomy and support needed to achieve exceptional outcomes for their clients.
Why this opportunity stands out This is not a volume litigation role.
You'll work exclusively on high-value Serious Injury matters alongside some of the most experienced practitioners in the market, supported by dedicated assistant fee earners, paralegals, Counsel and medical experts.
Rather than focusing on billing targets, you'll be encouraged to concentrate on delivering outstanding legal advice, building client relationships and achieving the very best rehabilitation and compensation outcomes.
If you're looking to further specialise in catastrophic injury work whilst progressing your career within a supportive national team, this opportunity offers exactly that.
The Role As an Associate within the Serious Injury team, you will:
- Manage a caseload of complex, high-value RTA Serious Injury claims.
- Develop litigation strategy from initial instruction through to settlement or trial.
- Lead on liability, quantum, rehabilitation and interim payment strategy.
- Build strong relationships with clients, families, Counsel, medical experts and rehabilitation providers.
- Mentor and support junior lawyers and assistant fee earners.
- Contribute towards maintaining exceptional technical standards across the team.
- Play an active role in the continued growth of one of the UK's leading claimant Serious Injury practices.
What we're looking for We're keen to speak with Solicitors or Legal Executives who can demonstrate:
- 8+ years' PQE (or equivalent senior-level experience).
- Extensive experience handling complex Serious Injury or Catastrophic Injury claims.
- Strong technical knowledge of liability, quantum and High Court litigation.
- Exceptional client care and communication skills.
- Previous experience supervising or mentoring junior colleagues.
- A collaborative approach and sound commercial judgement.
The Package Our client offers an excellent rewards package including:
- Salary between £60,000 and £90,000.
- Annual performance bonus.
- Fully remote working available (or London office if preferred).
- 35-hour working week.
- Flexible and agile working.
- Life Assurance.
- Income Protection.
- Holiday Trade Away Scheme.
- Monthly wellbeing days.
- Structured career progression.
- Ongoing investment in technical development and leadership.
- Opportunity to join one of the UK's most respected Serious Injury teams.
