Property Litigation Solicitor

We’re recruiting a Property Litigation Solicitor with 2–5 years’ PQE to join Nigel Davis Solicitors.

Property disputes are about more than land and buildings. They concern people’s homes, businesses and livelihoods—and require solicitors who can combine sound legal judgement with practical solutions.

With offices in Ashbourne and Uttoxeter, our firm has strong roots in the countryside and the rural business community. We offer interesting, varied disputes work and the opportunity to develop your career within a close-knit litigation team.

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.
