Housing Litigation Lawyer required to join a busy local authority based in London on a locum basis. The assignment is initially 3 months and will be extended into a rolling contract. The role is working from home whilst we are in lockdown.

• General Housing Litigation
• Anti-social behaviour
• Possession claims (secure and temporary accommodation)
• Injunctions
• Disrepair

This role would suit a Housing Lawyer who is flexible enough to deal with different types of housing litigation and is able to prioritise tasks and workloads.
