We are seeking a Paralegal to join our Commercial Property team, based in our new office in Southampton.
More about the Commercial Property Team:
Our specialist Commercial Property Team, and a number of individual lawyers, have received consistent recognition in both the Legal 500 and Chambers & Partners. Our team are experts in all matters relating to transactions involving commercial real estate, servicing a wide spectrum of clients from a variety of industry sectors.
Our team pride themselves on their client-centric approach; they recognise the importance of fully understanding a client’s commercial objectives and ensuring they receive an efficient, pragmatic, and dedicated service, regardless of the value or complexity of their matter.
We adopt a “one team” approach, which ensures the best outcomes for our clients through collaboration and teamwork. By sharing work and leveraging each team member’s unique skill set, we guarantee results for our clients while creating a supportive and inclusive work environment for our colleagues.
Day to Day:
Our Paralegals are a vital part of our team as they undertake a mixture of chargeable and non-chargeable work, managing their own duties whilst supporting other fee earners on their more complex matters. This work will include:
1. Drafting landlord & tenant documents – licences, leases and all ancillary documents.
2. Assisting in sales and purchases – obtaining title documents, drafting CPSE enquiries, obtaining searches.
3. Drafting SDLT returns.
4. Preparing Bills and Completion statements.
With this varied work you will be looking at cases involving, but not limited to sale and purchases of commercial property, refinancing, landlord and tenant work for office, retail, industrial and hospitality sectors.
About you:
First and foremost, we are a friendly and welcoming team who look for the same. Therefore, you will ideally be an individual who is open, flexible and excited about learning new things.
Perhaps you are a law graduate looking to kick-start your career with your first Paralegal role and have a key interest in Commercial Property, or an existing Paralegal with experience in the property industry who is seeking a brand new challenge. Either way, you should have a passion for excellent client service and naturally take an organised and efficient approach to your work.
Whilst some prior experience as part of a property team would be great, we are keen to hear from those who have related work or study experience and can demonstrate an interest in this line of work.
