An excellent opportunity has arisen for an experienced Medical Negligence Lawyer

To join the specialist Clinical Negligence team of a well-established and highly regarded law firm.

This part-time maternity cover role offers the chance to handle high-quality claimant work within a supportive and collaborative team, with hybrid and flexible working available.

The firm is also flexible on the part-time hours and days worked, allowing the successful candidate to agree a pattern that works for both parties.

The successful candidate will manage their own caseload with support from senior lawyers while delivering an exceptional standard of client care throughout the life of each claim.

Typical duties include:

  • Managing a claimant medical negligence caseload from instruction through to conclusion.
  • Handling matters including misdiagnosis, psychiatric injury, and fatal claims.
  • Preparing evidence, witness statements, schedules of loss, and court documentation.
  • Instructing counsel and medical experts while liaising with defendants and other parties.
  • Providing compassionate, professional support to clients throughout often sensitive and complex matters.

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.
