Description

Keoghs is looking for a talented NQ-2 Years PQE Solicitor to join its Casualty team in Bristol.

This is a rare opportunity to develop your career on a broad and highly technical caseload that goes well beyond traditional EL/PL litigation. You'll work very closely with a recognised leader in the field, assisting on complex and high-value claims for a diverse public sector client base, including police forces and local authorities.

The work is varied, intellectually stimulating and often high profile, with claim values ranging from substantial six-figure sums to matters worth millions of pounds. You'll also gain valuable exposure to tribunal claims, providing a breadth of experience that is difficult to find elsewhere this early in your legal career.


Key Responsibilities

  • Assist on a varied caseload of complex and high-value Employer's and Public Liability claims
  • Review and analyse liability, causation and quantum evidence
  • Draft pleadings, witness statements and other legal documentation
  • Liaise with clients, counsel, experts and witnesses
  • Support trial preparation and attendance at conferences
  • Assist with a range of tribunal matters, gaining exposure to additional areas of contentious work alongside your EL/PL caseload
  • Conduct legal research and contribute to strategic advice on complex and often novel legal issues


Skills, Knowledge and Expertise

  • Qualified Solicitor with 0-2 years' PQE
  • Experience in personal injury, casualty litigation, insurance litigation or general dispute resolution
  • Strong technical and analytical skills
  • Excellent written and verbal communication abilities
  • A genuine interest in complex litigation


Why join Keoghs?

  • Exceptional mentoring and hands-on development from day one
  • Hybrid working, with colleagues typically attending the office one day per week
  • Brand-new offices in the heart of Bristol city centre
  • Comprehensive benefits package, including private healthcare, pension, generous annual leave and a range of flexible benefits
  • A dog-friendly workplace, so your four-legged companion is welcome to join you in the office!
