New Vacancy: Senior Commercial and Property Litigator

We currently have a vacancy for a senior commercial and property litigation solicitor, at Partner/Senior Associate level based in our Liverpool office.

Property litigation work will typically include contested lease renewals, dilapidations claims and a wide range of other disputes involving the sale, purchase and leasing of property.

There will be some managerial responsibilities with 1-2 other members of the team being based in the Liverpool office at any given time.
