Property Damage Solicitor (NQ) | Birmingham | International Law Firm

The Opportunity

A leading international law firm is seeking a Newly Qualified Property Damage Solicitor to join its growing team in Birmingham. This is an outstanding opportunity for an ambitious NQ to develop their career within a nationally recognised disputes practice, acting for a broad range of insurer, corporate and commercial clients on high-value and complex property damage claims.

Working as part of a supportive and collaborative team, you will benefit from high-quality supervision, structured development and exposure to a varied caseload from the outset.

The Role

You will advise on a wide range of property damage matters, including:

  • Handling property damage claims arising from fires, floods, escapes of water, explosions and other significant incidents.
  • Managing subrogated recovery actions on behalf of insurers.
  • Advising clients on liability, quantum and policy-related issues.
  • Assisting on high-value, technically complex and multi-party litigation.
  • Working closely with experts, loss adjusters, insurers and corporate clients to deliver commercially focused solutions.
  • Supporting senior lawyers on major losses while progressively managing your own caseload.

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.
