Disputes Associate | Small Firm, Major Mandates | 2-5 PQE
We are instructed by a longstanding client, a conflict-free litigation boutique in London, to recruit a disputes associate at probably between 2 to 5 years PQE.
The firm's conflict-free model means it is regularly instructed on matters that would ordinarily go to the leading US and Magic Circle firms. Clients include corporates, investors, sovereign-related entities, family offices and high-net-worth individuals, typically in disputes spanning several jurisdictions.
The firm is busier than it has ever been, and this hire reflects that.
The work includes:
- Commercial litigation and cross-border disputes
- Civil fraud and asset tracing
- Shareholder and joint venture disputes
- Contentious trust and fiduciary matters
- Investigations involving fraud, bribery and corruption
- International arbitration and related proceedings
Teams are lean. Associates are trusted to run matters and deal directly with clients from an early stage, rather than handling one part of a large case. The role will suit someone who wants that level of responsibility and the autonomy that comes with a smaller firm.
The successful candidate will probably:
- Have between 2 and 5 years PQE
- Have trained and qualified at a leading City or international firm
You'll definitely have a strong academic record, solid experience in commercial litigation and complex disputes, and be technically strong, commercially minded and confident dealing directly with clients
To find out more about this role and others we are handling, please get in touch in complete confidence with David Von Dadelszen.
Please note that where a level of preferred experience or qualification is indicated, this is a guideline only and does not preclude applications from candidates with more or less experience.Our consultants will review your application and assess your suitability. We endeavour to respond to all applications within 72 hours, however due to the volume of applications we receive we may not be able to respond to every candidate individually and would advise that if you do not hear from us you should assume you are not successful in your application.
