Jobbeschreibung
William James Recruitment is instructed on a confidential lateral Partner search for a fast‑growing, premium litigation boutique that competes directly with Magic Circle, Silver Circle and US firms on complex, high‑value disputes.
The firm is led by highly regarded City litigators and has built a reputation for handling sophisticated commercial litigation, civil fraud, and financial services disputes. It has recently strengthened its partnership through lateral hires from leading US practices, reinforcing its position as a serious alternative platform for top‑tier disputes lawyers seeking greater autonomy and flexibility.
The firm is deliberately open to a range of disputes specialisms and welcomes Partners with established practices across commercial litigation, civil fraud, white collar crime and related contentious areas, including niche or specialist practices that complement the existing offering.
This is an opportunity to join a genuinely entrepreneurial platform, offering autonomy, flexibility and the ability to build and grow a practice within a collaborative, high‑calibre environment—without the conflicts, leverage pressures or structural constraints often associated with larger firms.
