International Law Firm

Commercial Litigation

Senior Associate 6+PQE

London

This international law firm boasts 80 offices across 40+ countries in the UK, Europe, Middle East, Africa and South America. The firm is recognised for its sector excellence and focuses on consumer products: energy; financial institutions; hotels & leisure; infrastructure & projects; life sciences & healthcare; real estate; and technology, media & telecommunications.

The London-based team advises on a wide variety of international and national disputes, across all the sectors that the Firm specialises in, including TMT, financial services, energy, life sciences, and real estate. Their work is often high-profile and at the cutting edge of dispute resolution.

This team has a proven track record of providing practical and commercial advice to a wide range of clients at all stages of the dispute resolution process - from drafting dispute resolution clauses during pre-contractual negotiations, through to obtaining emergency injunctions in situations where assets may be at risk, to litigating and arbitrating complex multi-jurisdictional disputes and enforcing judgments and awards and recovering assets.

As part of the role, you will be expected to provide in-depth case analysis and briefings for the partners and the team whilst being able to manage substantial disputes under partner supervision. You will work directly with clients. This will include taking instructions and preparing high quality and concise party/party correspondence, instructions to Counsel, pleadings and other court and arbitration documents as required. You will also be able to support the partners with business development opportunities and encouraged to take the initiative in developing your own and the team's client relationships and market profile.

The ideal candidate will have a well-developed understanding of litigation, arbitration and ADR procedures with the ability to translate legal theory into practical commercial advice. You will have 6+ years' PQE and must have solid experience within a comparable firm recognised for general disputes work and be able to handle clients in major blue-chip companies.

Please apply as directed or confidentially contact Aidan McAvinue at Search Legal for more information. Alternatively, if this role is not for you, I am working a variety of other litigation opportunities with ranked teams in the City of London so would be interested to talk to any litigation lawyer.
