Following recent high profile hires and increased client instructions an opportunity has arisen for a Commercial Litigation Associate to join us in the Thames Valley office.
The team is well known for the responsibility, client contact and freedom it gives to its legal advisers. The team has consistently promoted lawyers year on year. The Dispute Resolution and Compliance group is based across several locations but works nationally as one, with support required cross office and practice group.
Our preferred candidate will be an ambitious and bright general commercial litigator with training from a recognised practice.
