Fee Earner - Serious Injury

This Fee Earner role is aimed at someone who wants more than routine personal injury handling. The work here is more demanding than standard fast-track claims and that is the point. It calls for judgement, strong client handling and a proper understanding of how complex cases move through the legal process and the wider insurance landscape.

You will be joining a specialist team focused on serious injury matters where the facts matter, the strategy matters and the way a file is handled can materially change the outcome. This is not a volume game. It is not about loading up a caseload and hoping for the best. It is about giving a capable Fee Earner the room to handle serious work properly within a business that understands the realities of the insurance market.

As a Fee Earner, you will work on claims involving substantial injuries, complex evidence and sensitive client circumstances. You will need to think clearly, assess risk sensibly and deal confidently with clients, experts, counsel and insurers. In return, you will get better quality work, proper support and the chance to build in a more technical area of the insurance-linked personal injury sector.

What you'll be doing:

* Managing a caseload of serious injury claims from instruction through to resolution
* Handling matters involving complex injuries, substantial losses and detailed evidence
* Reviewing liability, causation, medical evidence and quantum with care and accuracy
* Liaising with clients, experts, counsel and insurers throughout the life of the claim
* Supporting litigation strategy, settlement discussions and wider case progression
* Maintaining strong file management and compliance standards at every stage
* Approaching each file with a practical, commercially aware insurance mindset

What they're looking for:

* Experience handling serious injury or complex personal injury matters
* Background as a fee earner, solicitor, legal executive or equivalent claims professional
* Strong grasp of liability, medical evidence and quantum in higher value cases
* Confidence managing your own files with the right level of supervision
* Ability to deal with sensitive client situations in a calm and credible way
* Commercial awareness and a clear understanding of the insurance environment
* Someone steady, technically capable and trusted to make sensible decisions

What's on offer:

* Salary of £40,000 to £55,000 depending on experience
* Access to more technical and meaningful personal injury work
* A stable team with strong experience in the serious injury and insurance market
* Supportive leadership without unnecessary interference or micro management
* Real opportunity to deepen your expertise as a Fee Earner
* A long-term move for someone who values quality work and professional credibility

This Fee Earner opportunity will suit someone who has built a solid foundation and wants to move further into complex claims work without the usual noise that comes with it. Serious injury cases require a different level of judgement and a different standard of handling. Good people in this space know that
