Property Litigation Associate / Senior Associate / Principal Associate

3+ PQE | Fully Remote | Legal 500 Firm | Specialist Property Litigation

We’re currently working with a highly regarded Legal 500 firm that is looking to grow its specialist Property Litigation team with experienced Associates, Senior Associates, and Principal Associates.

This is a fully remote opportunity, offering the flexibility to work from anywhere in the UK while joining an established and growing specialist property litigation team.

The role is open to solicitors with 3+ years’ PQE, with the level of responsibility tailored to your experience and seniority.

The Role

The team has a particularly strong reputation for residential leasehold and landlord & tenant litigation, acting for landlords and managing agents across both high-volume portfolios and complex, high-value disputes.

You’ll manage a varied caseload of property litigation matters, with responsibilities including:

  • Residential leasehold and landlord & tenant disputes
  • Service charge disputes and lease interpretation
  • Breaches of covenant and forfeiture proceedings
  • Property management-related disputes and advice
  • First-tier Tribunal (Property Chamber) matters
  • Drafting pleadings, witness statements, and legal advice
  • Advising clients on complex property disputes
  • Supporting on higher-value and technically complex matters
  • Developing advocacy experience and taking responsibility for hearings
  • Supervising and supporting junior members of the team where appropriate

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.
