Job Description:

Solicitor / Legal Executive – Serious & Catastrophic Injury (Claimant)

Experience Required: 1–5 PQE

Location: Warwick

I have helped to establish this firm’s presence in the Midlands and have successfully recruited several key hires for them as they continue to grow. If you’re interested in joining a progressive and people focused firm that’s genuinely committed to doing things the right way, I’d love to speak with you.

Join an award winning, forward thinking law firm committed to doing things differently in the Serious and Catastrophic Injury space. Working within a well established and expanding team, you will manage your own caseload of serious injury matters, primarily multi-track claims and support senior colleagues on complex, high-value catastrophic cases.

Our client has built a reputation for putting clients first – refusing unnecessary deductions from damages and ensuring injured individuals receive the full support and compensation they deserve. Recognised as one of the UK’s best law firms to work for and accredited with the Investors in People Gold Standard, they are passionate about developing talent and delivering meaningful outcomes.

The Candidate

• The ideal candidate will be a driven and empathetic solicitor or legal executive with strong experience in claimant personal injury work.
• You will be confident managing multi-track matters independently while contributing to complex catastrophic injury cases involving brain, spinal cord, amputation or chronic pain injuries. A commitment to client care and a collaborative approach to working are essential.

Key Responsibilities:

• Manage a varied caseload of serious injury multi-track claims and where required, lower-value matters.
• Work closely with senior colleagues on high-value catastrophic injury claims.
• Maintain accurate, up-to-date records in the firm’s case management system.
• Actively engage in training, development and continuous legal education.
• Enjoy the flexibility of remote work, with the autonomy to choose your work setting. Regular office attendance is not mandatory but occasional visits, around 1-2 days per week or fortnight are expected.

This is a hybrid role with flexibility to work from home and their Warwick based office, offering autonomy, purpose and the chance to make a real difference to people’s lives.
