Job Details
Senior Litigation Solicitor - Northampton
Excellent and realistic route to partnership
Successful High street type firm.
The successful candidate will ideally have a minimum of 5 years PQE in dealing with a broad range of general litigation and property litigation matters, preferably within small to medium sized practices. You must be able to demonstrate the confidence and experience to work unsupervised on a day to day basis. Any management of running a small team would be beneficial. Full secretarial/admin support would be provided.
The firm has been around for many years and enjoys a superb reputation in the local area. They enjoy a strong presence in the local market and have a regular flow of work coming in from returning clients and from recommendations, word of mouth and as a result of their general reputation.
The firm adopts quite a relaxed approach to the way it operates and operates a quality over quantity approach. It prefers to focus on their clients satisfaction and results that their clients are happy with rather than trying to bill as much as possible on each matter and setting high targets. They adopt a very "grown up" type attitude across the practice and allow their lawyers plenty of autonomy which they feel creates a happier and more productive firm and allows them to continue to provide a very client centered service.
If the above role sounds of interest please get in touch with Greg at QED legal or apply ASAP.
Any applications will be treated in the strictest of confidence and no details will be forwarded without your express permission.

QED
An acronym of the latin phrase quod erat demonstrandum which translates as "thus it is demonstrated" or "that which was to be demonstrated". It is most often used as an annotation at the end of a complex mathematical, scientific or philosophical argument to show that the author had proven what he had set out to prove. In recent times it has also been translated as "Quite Easily Done".
