Description

We are looking for a talented Advocate to join our advocacy team. Candidates will ideally have sound knowledge of the personal injury sector, but it is not essential. We welcome applications from individuals with all levels of qualification or experience but are particularly interested in hearing from BPTC graduates and candidates with some practical experience (e.g. advocacy, paralegal).
This role will give you the chance to work with a successfully established and growing company with Solicitor owner-managers. You will be part of the advocacy team, working closely with the Head of Advocacy (Partner/Barrister). This is an excellent opportunity to gain and develop first-hand advocacy skills.

Responsibilities
  • To undertake advocacy requirements that might arise, including but not limited to interlocutory application hearings, case management hearings, and infant approval hearings.
  • To undertake drafting tasks as required, such as advice (formal and informal), pleadings and skeleton arguments.
  • To keep up to date with procedural changes, case law and developments in legislation.
  • Ensuring the provision of a high-quality advocacy service.
  • Extensive travel across England and Wales that might require overnight stays.
    In addition to the above, you must be able to work independently and to a high standard, prioritising workloads and have fantastic attention to detail. While you will be working within the advocacy team, you will be provided with instructions in a similar way to external counsel.
