Do you specialise in professional indemnity insurance disputes? If so, leverage your skills with top industry professionals here at Mills & Reeve.
The role
We have a fantastic opportunity for a 4-5 years PQE Solicitor to join our defendant professional indemnity team. You will work with the wider Insurance Disputes National Service Line (NSL) led by Niall Innes.
The work is predominantly professional indemnity, acting for members of various professions but primarily lawyers (both Solicitors and Barristers), construction professionals, accountants, insurance brokers, independent financial advisers, and surveyors. Clients are located nationally, with work referred at their nomination or directly by insurers, most of which are located close to our London office but with developed regionally based teams.
The role will require:
1. Some experience of the professional indemnity insurance market
2. Up to date pre-action and litigation procedure knowledge.
3. Experience in private practice at a large regional or City law firm or in-house for a global insurer or MGA.
4. Litigation experience and strong analytical skills.
The benefits
As you'd expect, we offer a competitive salary and a wide range of benefits.
Pre-employment screening
If we offer you a role, we will conduct comprehensive pre-employment screening. This screening will include, but is not limited to, a basic DBS, verification of your right to work, a three-year employment history, and a self-declaration to assess your character and suitability for the role. Full details of our pre-screening employment process are available upon request.
