Why join us

What sets us apart

Our business is built on long-term, sustainable partnerships. We’re proud to handle some of the most high-value serious injury work in the country, and have a consistent flow of high-quality, life changing work. This creates the perfect environment to build a rewarding, lasting career, with opportunities to specialise, develop expertise and progress into more senior roles.

High-quality, meaningful work

We’re trusted with some of the most serious and complex injury cases in the UK. We keep our caseloads smaller, meaning we have more time for each client. We relentlessly pursue claims for our clients, but our support goes much further.

Hybrid working

We’re a national digital legal business that supports colleagues with working flexibly; from one of our offices, home or even away from their normal place of work. Our culture is one of trust where our colleagues have the autonomy and flexibility to work in a way that’s best for them and for the business.

Career progression

From day one, we invest in your learning and development. Whether you’re pursing a legal qualification or growing into a leadership role, we’ll help you to get there.
