Serious Injury Solicitor / Senior Solicitor

Reading | Hybrid Working | Competitive Salary

HarKaye Core Talent is working confidentially with a highly regarded specialist law firm seeking an experienced Serious Injury Solicitor to join its growing team in Reading.

This is an excellent opportunity for a claimant solicitor who is passionate about representing individuals and families affected by life-changing injuries. You will manage a varied caseload of complex and high-value matters, potentially including brain injury, spinal injury, amputation, serious orthopaedic injury and fatal accident claims.

You will work alongside experienced and well-respected lawyers within a collaborative, compassionate and client-focused environment. The firm places considerable importance on securing early rehabilitation and ensuring clients receive the practical support they need throughout the lifetime of their claim.

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.
