You will manage a varied caseload of claimant Personal Injury matters, covering a range of claim types and levels of complexity.
Your responsibilities will include:

• 
  Managing your own caseload from initial instruction through to settlement or conclusion
• 
  Handling litigated Personal Injury claims, including multi-track matters
• 
  Working across RTA, Employers' Liability, Public Liability and Occupiers' Liability claims
• 
  Advising clients on the progress and merits of their claims throughout the litigation process
• 
  Drafting pleadings, witness statements, schedules of loss and other relevant legal documentation

• 
  Developing experience in more complex and higher-value matters
• 
  Working collaboratively with colleagues to maintain high standards of client care and service

  The opportunity to join an established and growing Personal Injury team
• 
  A varied claimant caseload spanning different types of PI claims
• 
  Exposure to litigated, multi-track and higher-value matters
