Job description

Property Litigation Solicitor | NQ-3 PQE | Bristol

An opportunity to join a highly regarded national law firm and work within one of the strongest Property Litigation teams in the South West.

If you're an NQ-3 PQE solicitor with some experience in real estate disputes, this could be a really good next move. The quality of work, client base and training on offer would give you the chance to develop your career and add a very strong name to your CV.

The work

You'll be working on a varied mix of commercial and complex residential property disputes, acting for some major household names, property investors and large institutions.

The work includes:

• Commercial landlord and tenant disputes.
• Property-related litigation and contested proceedings.
• Lease renewals, break notices and dilapidations.
• Asset management and risk management advice.
• Mediation, arbitration and other forms of dispute resolution.

The team handles complex, high-value matters across a range of sectors, with a particularly strong reputation for its real estate disputes work.

The firm and team

This is a well-established national firm with a significant presence in Bristol and an excellent reputation for the quality of its work.

The Property Litigation team is particularly highly regarded, with top-tier rankings in both Chambers and Legal 500.
Despite the scale of the firm, the culture is collaborative and the team is known for being approachable. You'll have the opportunity to work alongside some excellent lawyers and gain exposure to clients and matters that you might not find elsewhere in the Bristol market.

Salary and benefits

• High salary for the Bristol market.
• Strong bonus scheme with both firmwide and individual performance elements.
• Individual bonus potential of up to 25% of salary, on top of the firmwide bonus.
• Hybrid working.
• Excellent wider benefits package.

The bonus scheme is particularly worth looking at. There are two separate elements, and I'm happy to explain how the mechanics work if you'd like to know more.

Who would suit this?

A solicitor with NQ-3 PQE and some experience in property litigation or real estate disputes.

You don't necessarily need to have worked on the same level of matters already. This is an opportunity to step up, develop your technical ability and get involved in some really impressive work.
For someone early in their career, joining a team of this calibre could make a real difference to their longer-term prospects.
