Location
Eastbourne
Description
Hart Reade LLP has a rare opportunity for a full-time Civil Litigation Lawyer to join our busy practice.
Qualifications
Applicants will ideally need to have at least 2 years PQE as a Solicitor or Chartered Legal Executive.
Responsibilities
This is an exciting role dealing with a broad range of civil litigation including:
- Property disputes
- Landlord and tenant
- Commercial disputes
- Employment
Candidates will be required to have good written and spoken English and the ability to communicate well with clients, colleagues, and other external contacts. We pride ourselves on the client care we provide; therefore, candidates should be experienced as above and confident and personable both on the telephone and face to face.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
You should have good IT skills and be competent in the use of Microsoft Office (Word, Outlook, and Excel). Experience of using a case management system would be an advantage but not essential as training will be provided.
You should be proactive, highly organized, with a keen attention to detail and driven, with the ability to market yourself and the practice. Networking will be a key skill to nurture our existing contacts as well as forging new business links within the communities we serve.
Benefits
In return, you will be joining a thriving Lexcel-accredited law practice. We can offer a supportive and professional working environment; along with career progression and an excellent salary, benefits, and bonus package.
How to Apply
If you would like to be considered for the above positions, please send your up-to-date CV and covering letter to Mrs. B Ticehurst, HR & Administration Manager, Hart Reade LLP, 104 South Street, Eastbourne BN21 4LW, bticehurst@hartreade.co.uk.
