      Company

      Geoffrey Leaver Solicitors was founded in 1965. Since then, the Firm has grown with the city, attracting high quality lawyers from Milton Keynes and London, and we are proud of the fact that three of our current Partners started their legal careers with the firm. We also expanded considerably in 2006 after being joined by a number of key lawyers from the regional heavyweight Fennemores Solicitors – which added more depth and expertise to our Dispute Resolution and Litigation, Property and Personal Injury departments.

      The Dispute Resolution and Litigation Team includes four experienced partners who have a breadth of expertise handling complex and high value commercial disputes. In addition, the team has an experienced litigator who specialises in handling Contentious Probate and Trust claims and Trust of Land Act claims. Today we have over 40 staff members – and many of our partners are accredited specialists in the Legal 500 and Chambers & Partners legal directories. We are a skilled and experienced team who play a full part in the business and local community.

      Benefits

      Our team work hard to put clients first but we also work hard to develop and reward our staff. We offer a competitive salary, a range of benefits and a bonus scheme.
