An established regional law firm is seeking an experienced solicitor to lead its Litigation Department in the West Midlands. This is a senior opportunity to join a respected practice during an exciting phase of growth, under the leadership of a newly appointed, forward-thinking Managing Partner.
The firm is known for its positive and collaborative culture, strong local roots, and commitment to work-life balance. You'll oversee a capable litigation team, manage a high-quality caseload, and play a key role in shaping departmental strategy.
The work is varied and stimulating, covering a broad range of commercial litigation matters including breach of contract claims, shareholder and partnership disputes, professional negligence, property litigation, and contested probate. The client base is diverse - from SMEs to high-net-worth individuals - offering both challenge and reward.
