Clinical Negligence Solicitor – Leeds

I am currently partnering with a highly regarded The Legal 500 ranked firm seeking to appoint a Clinical Negligence Associate Solicitor, ideally with birth injury experience as part of its continued strategic growth.

This is an excellent opportunity for an ambitious Associate looking to join a nationally recognised Healthcare Litigation team undertaking complex, high-value work within a genuinely supportive and progressive environment.

• Failures in medical treatment and patient care

You will work closely with experienced Partners and Senior Associates on sensitive, high-value litigation, while developing increased responsibility and profile within the team. There will also be scope to contribute to business development and the continued growth of the practice.

About You:
