I'm working exclusively with a long-established and highly regarded East London law firm to recruit a Commercial/Property Litigation Solicitor into their Dispute Resolution team. With a long-standing legacy, this firm is recognised by Chambers UK, Legal 500, and The Times Top 250 Law Firms, and has recently been named one of the Sunday Times Best Places to Work for the second year running. They’re proud of their supportive culture, strong internal progression, and commitment to high-quality client service.

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a close-knit litigation team with a strong referral network from across the firm’s conveyancing, family, and probate departments. You’ll handle a broad range of matters for private individuals and SMEs, including contractual disputes, leasehold issues, possession claims, service charge disputes, and professional negligence. While advocacy experience is welcome, it's not essential — you'll be supported to grow your skills in a collaborative and development-focused environment.

The role offers real variety, with a mix of both commercial and property litigation work. You'll be encouraged to take ownership of your caseload, build strong client relationships, and get involved in business development.

We're looking for a qualified solicitor with a minimum of 2 years' PQE and solid experience in both commercial and property litigation. You should be confident managing your own caseload, commercially minded, and comfortable working with a range of clients. An interest in marketing and networking will be valuable as the team continues to grow its presence.

This is a genuinely exciting opportunity to join a forward-thinking, people-first firm in a well-connected East London location. The role comes with a competitive salary and a strong benefits package, including 25 days' holiday (rising with service), your birthday off, a bonus scheme, health cashback plan, cycle to work scheme, and more. Flexible and hybrid working is supported.

If this sounds of interest, feel free to get in touch or apply now.
