Serious Injury Solicitor – Complex Injury Claims

Bolt Burdon Kemp is recruiting an experienced claimant personal injury solicitor with 4–8 years PQE to join our Complex Injury team. This is a rewarding role where you’ll make a lasting difference for people living with life-changing injuries.

Led by Josh Hughes, our team offers an established personal injury lawyer the opportunity to deepen their expertise in catastrophic injury claims. You’ll bring your experience to complex cases, keep clients’ needs at the heart of every decision and help them move forward with their lives.

The role

• Champion clients with life-changing injuries, delivering exceptional legal support with their needs at the heart of your work

• Ambition, a goal-oriented approach and a commitment to delivering excellent work for clients
• Curiosity and the motivation to keep learning, develop your expertise and progress your legal career
• A positive, professional approach to supporting clients and collaborating with colleagues.
