This Legal 500 firm is among the Top 50 law firms in the UK and is currently seeking an Associate solicitor to join its Tier 1 ranked contentious private client team based in the City of London.

Being ranked in the top tier of the Legal 500, this team will provide you with access to the highest quality, assisting a renowned list of ultra-high-net-worth clients. With support from top ranked lawyers and opportunities for further progression, this is a superb opening to propel forwards your career.

The Firm
This firm is pioneering and a leader in its field.

They are market leaders in dealing with a broad range of domestic and international clients handling contentious and non-contentious legal, business and personal matters.


Their industry knowledge and expertise put them ahead of the curve - they stand out in the market to both clients and prospective employees.

enhanced prospects for progression to Senior Associate and beyond.


You will be responsible in
managing your own smaller cases while assisting the partners in undertaking the larger international disputes.


The role will involve an
element of business development - providing you the opportunity to not only contribute to the continued growth of the department but also to
develop your personal practice.


Ranked Tier 1 in the Legal 500, this is an exceptional team to work with, where you will benefit from insight from the leading lawyers in the country.
