Disputes Associate - Cayman | 5-7PQE

A specialist offshore litigation firm is looking to strengthen its Cayman Islands disputes team with an experienced disputes lawyer.

The practice acts on complex, high-value and often multi-jurisdictional matters, with particular strength across commercial litigation, insolvency and restructuring, fraud and asset recovery, trust and fund disputes. The team also has a growing profile in cryptocurrency and digital asset disputes, alongside contentious matters involving international businesses, financial institutions and private clients.

The role offers exposure to substantial contentious work, including shareholder and company disputes, contractual claims, jurisdictional issues, civil fraud, asset recovery and applications for freezing and disclosure relief. Lawyers can expect meaningful involvement in cross-border matters and the opportunity to work closely with experienced litigators on strategically important cases.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

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.
