    Public Law (Migrant Support) Solicitor (3 YR PQE plus)
    Vacancy Closes 12:00am March 27, 2023

    Are you passionate about ensuring access to justice for individuals against public authorities? Are you ready to take the next step in your career to enhance our public law team?

    We are looking for a Solicitor or Legal Executive, who is able to meet the Legal Aid Agency supervisor requirements for the public law category to join our well-established and friendly social welfare department.

    We act for clients in a range of private and public law matters covering housing, community care, Court of Protection and migrant support issues.  We are committed to acting for individuals who want to enforce their rights against the state.  We want to grow our migrant support work in particular, and you will be a key part of that growth.

    You will be experienced in all aspects of public law including judicial review proceedings. Ideally, you will have recent experience of migrant support issues such as disputes about accommodation and support with the Home Office and local authorities, age assessments, leaving care duties and trafficking. We would especially welcome candidates who have experience of damages claims against public authorities relating to migrant support.

    You will need to share our commitment to access to justice, have good knowledge of the legal aid scheme and have the skills to provide supervision to a growing team of junior lawyers. You will have a desire to grow as a lawyer and enhance the department. Marketing and networking skills are important to help to develop the team.

    You will be working with colleagues specialising in housing, community care, Court of Protection and public law. Our reputation for good quality advice and representation has been recognised by Chambers and Partners and the Legal 500. We are also proud to be one of the Times’ Best Law Firms of 2023, commended for our administrative and public law work.

    We offer excellent support and training opportunities to our staff, as acknowledged in our Lexcel accreditation. We reward performance, provide flexible working practices and positively encourage every individual’s contribution as to how we deliver services.
