This is an excellent opportunity for an NQ solicitor looking to specialise in property litigation and join a supportive, well-structured team with a strong reputation across the East Midlands. The firm is known for its high-quality work, excellent training culture, and genuinely friendly, down-to-earth environment.

Strong grounding in property litigation or broader litigation during training
Excellent drafting and analytical skills
A practical, commercial approach to resolving disputes
Confidence in communicating with clients and stakeholders
A genuine interest in property disputes and contentious real estate work
The ability to manage competing priorities in a busy environment
