An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Property Litigation lawyer to join a highly-regarded Real Estate group. You will become part of a friendly, collaborative team that is widely recognized for its expertise in this area and is ranked in top legal directories like Legal 500 and Chambers.

The Real Estate group is composed of 8 partners and 17 other lawyers, and is recognized as one of the leading real estate practices in the South East, outside London. The group is recommended by leading independent legal directories for its comprehensive real estate services across multiple sectors, including real estate dispute resolution, construction, and transactional real estate.

The real estate disputes team (comprising 2 partners and 4 other lawyers) is an integral part of the group and covers a broad range of property litigation work, including:

Support from a professional support lawyer (PSL), trainees, and paralegals, along with access to valuable resources and training, ensures a collaborative working environment that promotes professional growth. Flexible and hybrid working options are available, with a preference for employees to work in the office at least two days per week.
