Commercial Litigation Partner

For many firms, litigation is just another department. Here, it is the beating heart of the practice. This is a specialist disputes outfit, highly regarded for its ability to handle high value, complex cases that demand both technical skill and strategic judgment. As a Partner, you will step into an environment where litigation is not a side note. It is the business.
The Firm
This boutique firm has carved out a reputation as one of London's go to practices for contentious work. Their clients include high net worth individuals, entrepreneurs, and corporates seeking robust, sophisticated advice on their most sensitive disputes.
Unencumbered by the bureaucracy of larger firms, this is a place where decisions are swift, ideas are welcomed, and Partners have genuine influence. Collaboration is valued, innovation is encouraged, and those who contribute to the firm's growth share directly in its success.
The Role
You will join a close knit team of litigators who regularly advise on shareholder disputes, contractual claims, contentious insolvency, professional negligence and reputation sensitive matters. The firm's growing client base ensures a steady flow of instructions, and you will be supported with the resources to build and expand your own practice.
This is a strategically important hire. The firm is investing in its future leadership and seeking someone who can help shape the direction of the disputes team in the years ahead.
Your Future Here
From day one, you will play a pivotal role in key client relationships and firm strategy. Within two to three years, you could be leading the litigation practice with genuine equity prospects and a platform to define its next chapter.
