Office based in Preston. Full time, permanent.

Napthens has an opportunity for an ambitious candidate to join a Legal 500 Tier 1 rated commercial litigation team headed by John Whittingslow, who is regularly listed in the Legal 500 as a “leading individual”.

You are comfortable being John's number two, supporting the team, supervising trainees and newly qualified colleagues with your wealth of experience.

Our team's client roster is stellar, as we regularly act for sports people, celebrities, blue chip companies, NW SME's, London-based institutions, and high net worth individuals.

Our geographical reach stretches beyond the Northwest too with clients based far and wide, in countries such as Belgium, France, USA, and the Caribbean.

You will be joining a team that has in-depth knowledge, excellent technical and commercial skills and a reputation as one of the top litigation teams in the Northwest.

We work collaboratively with our colleagues, with all other departments referring into our team, many of whom have made the move to Napthens from international and national firms, and we have very strong relationships with a wide range of referrers and intermediaries whose clients turn to us when they need legal support.

At Napthens, the quality of our work and our clients speaks for itself.

Come and talk to us about how we can elevate your career.
