An unmissable opportunity for an experienced Property Litigation Solicitor to join a highly recognisable, national law firm in Yorkshire.
Our client boasts extensive national reach with a network of offices spanning the country. Their impressive client base covers both the public and private sector and the work that they attract is of the highest quality and includes some really unusual disputes. The firm aim to work collaboratively across their multi-location offices to offer their clients an all-inclusive legal service and that is no different for the property litigation team.
In this property litigation role, you will work closely with the top-rated real estate disputes team, many of whom have worked at leading London and national firms, to provide a high-quality legal service to first class clients.
You will have the opportunity to run a run range of complex and interesting property related disputes, and your responsibility level will depend upon your experience. They are happy to recruit from 2 years’ experience upwards, but you must already have property litigation experience. Whilst they can accommodate new junior team members they are also considering more senior hire, in fact up to Partner level. Your role will be shaped to suit, so at the more junior level you could find yourself running smaller matters yourself whilst working alongside others on the more complex and high value matters, this is a brilliant way to learn and develop. If you are already at or approaching Partner level there would be a heavier emphasis on client management and development, however they would still have plenty of quality work to offer on day one as well as looking to you to help with the supervision and development of more junior colleagues.
The team strive to offer their clients the highest quality of service and to adapt to the evolving legal environment, looking to give commercial and practice solutions rather than just technical ones. They do all of this whilst maintaining the collegiate, but stretching, environment that they all really value. Whilst the team works nationally and offer a blend of home and office working, if you are a junior lawyer there is plenty of support and development on offer and you will be encouraged to go into the office a few days a week to make the most of this. The other thing to note, is that whilst this role offers access to complex and challenging work it is not with one of the traditional big 6 in Leeds and the working environment is rather different, there is still of course the need to bill but there isn’t as much focus on this as you will find at some of the other firms, with the focus being more on the team’s achievements collectively.
If you would be keen to hear more about this Property Litigation Solicitor or Partner role based in Leeds, contact Rachael Mann at Sacco Mann Legal Recruitment on 0113 4677111 or email Rachael.Mann@saccomann.com....Read more...
A highly renowned, award winning firm in Leeds City Centre is looking to recruit a Senior Commercial Litigation Solicitor to join their team. The firm offers a full range of legal services to clients across the private and public sectors as well as bespoke advice to individuals. They pride themselves on client satisfaction and they aim to consistently provide a level of service that will exceed their clients' expectations.
Our client’s commercial litigation team is flying. They have established a fantastic position within the Yorkshire and wider market and the growth in their instructions shows no sign of slowing down at all. They are looking for someone who has high calibre litigation experience and who is able to pick up and run with complex and interesting work but who also has the desire to progress and make a mark themselves. The continual success of the team has been driven by them recruiting lawyers who like not only practicing the law but also getting involved in Business Development. If you are someone who wants to join a respected and energetic team, where you will be both encouraged and supported to run with your own ideas, with a strong brand behind you then this would be an excellent opportunity to explore.
The work that they handle now includes anything from contractual and IT disputes through to fraud, negligence and partnership and boardroom disputes. Across the business they operate within a number of niche sectors and if you have a sectoral approach, they are likely to have others across the business who can help in the evolution of this. Whilst they are happy to look at people from all backgrounds there is a particular opportunity for people who have an interview in, ideally as well as experience in, IT and technology disputes.
The quality of the work is high, and it is often fast paced too so they need someone who has an energy for commercial litigation.
If you are at one of the more established National / International firms it may be that you feel that you have hit a glass ceiling or are just not able to progress as quickly as you’d like. Alternatively, you may be within a smaller firm where there is a lack of support from both other professionals and the back-office offering. This firm loves personalities and support individuals fully in their development. It’s a great opportunity and whilst not one of the big 6 in Leeds they have a great platform and scope to move forward at pace, for you, for the team and for the firm.
The successful candidate will probably have at least 5 years PQE within commercial litigation and an entrepreneurial approach, however they are happy to be flexible with experience and consider those who fall out of this bracket.

This is a fantastic opportunity for a Commercial Litigation Solicitor to join a growing team in central Leeds. The firm is a major international commercial player and has all of the infrastructure and impressive client roster associated with that profile, however the team locally is in its early growth stages under the leadership of recently recruited Partners who are taking it from strength to strength. You will have the benefit of working closely with and learning from these experts.
If you are looking to be exposed to a broad portfolio of clients, then this commercial litigation opportunity with this award-winning firm should stand out. This role is a result of expansion and is the next step in our client’s ambition to grow and develop the commercial litigation department in Leeds.
The Role
- In this role you will work on a wide variety of commercial litigation matters (including procurement related disputes) and will be exposed to both national and international clients as well as some regional matters.
- You will be exposed to a full mix of matters and the team is currently working on heavyweight disputes within the High Court, arbitration, complex contractual disputes, shareholder claims, fraud, and asset recovery to name just a few.
- You will run your own caseload of complex and high value disputes. In addition, you will also support the team with their high-profile, heavyweight matters mentioned above.
The Person
- Our client is seeking applications from Commercial Litigation Solicitors with 1+ years post qualification experience (given as a guide) to handle a wide range of general commercial litigation and procurement disputes (an interesting and niche area to work in as part of a wider caseload, which will see you working with some major public sector bodies such as the NHS).
- Our client works closely not just as a team within the Leeds office but also with colleagues in Newcastle and other offices throughout the country. You must be confident working with colleagues remotely and have a real team ethos and mentality.
If you would like to apply for this Commercial Litigation Solicitor role or would like to hear more about it, please contact Sophie Linley at Sacco Mann or ask to speak to another member of the Private Practice team. Alternatively, if you know of anyone who would be suitable for this role then please let them or us know as we offer a reward for successful referrals.

Do you feel confident to work independently, taking ownership of your own projects and caseload, liaising with contacts and senior stakeholders on a daily basis? Are you able to work from their prestigious offices (either Manchester or (preferably) Leeds) two days per week? If so, please read on…….
This is a brand new opportunity for a qualified disputes lawyer to join an established and highly regarded In-house legal team, working for a global player in the engineering consultancy space. Ideally, you’ll have at least 2 years PQE gained in construction disputes – candidates with Professional Indemnity experience are especially welcome to apply.
The work and projects are of an exceptional quality, and this is a truly commercial position where you will be immersed in significant projects in an environment alive with innovation and possibility. Those candidates with solid legal skills and a creative mind will flourish and much of this role involves education and advice. You’ll be encouraged to use your critical thinking and emotional intelligence to help solve legal and commercial problems, as a member of the integral legal team.
The role offers a competitive salary inline with lawyers with 2-7 years PQE in a relevant discipline. There is a car allowance and discretionary bonus, along with healthcare and a generous pension contribution.
You’ll be working alongside lawyers with a stellar pedigree and profile, dealing in excellent quality of work where work life balance is tangible. If you are currently considering a move from the restrictions of a law firm environment, these roles come along infrequently. Equally, if you are currently In-house and are looking to explore the next stage in your career, this may well offer you a progressive step in terms of autonomy, quality of work and independent commercial accountability and responsibility.
