Litigation Lawyer
Dorchester
Opportunity: Litigation Lawyer - Rare Succession Opportunity (Personal Injury Focus) Location: Offices across Dorset and Somerset Salary: Up to £75,000 + bonus If you're a Litigation Lawyer looking for genuine progression rather than empty promises, this one is absolutely worth a look! I'm supporting a long-established, highly regarded regional firm that prides itself on high-quality work, a genuinely supportive culture and long-term career development. They're well-known locally for their loyal, high-net-worth client base and personable, down-to-earth approach - and they're now planning for the future with a strategic hire into their Litigation team. Why This Role Stands Out: A senior Partner within the team is beginning to wind down over the next couple of years, and they're looking for the right person to start taking on his high-quality caseload, including a mix of civil litigation and long-standing personal injury clients. This is a true succession pathway. Not "shadowing", not "maybe eventually", but a real opportunity to inherit a substantial client portfolio and become a key figure within the department. The Role: You'll join an experienced and friendly team handling a varied litigation caseload, with a strong emphasis on Personal Injury. You don't need decades of experience - what matters is solid PI exposure, good client care and the confidence to handle files independently. There's also scope to pick up work across other areas such as debt recovery, boundary disputes or Contentious Probate depending on your interests. Who We Are Looking For: Solicitor or Cilex with a background in Personal Injury litigation (and ideally, other areas of civil litigation too) Comfortable managing your own files Strong communication and client-care skills Someone who values long-term relationships and wants to grow with a firm Progression & Support: The firm invests heavily in its people. You'll have: A clear, realistic route to progression Excellent mentoring from senior colleagues Autonomy to grow your own practice The chance to step into established, long-standing client relationships This role is ideal for someone who wants to build a name for themselves locally and have a meaningful impact on a well-respected team. Benefits That Genuinely Add Value: The firm offers one of the most comprehensive benefits packages in the region, including: 25 days' holiday + bank holidays + birthday leave Health Cash Plan, 24/7 private GP access, Employee Assistance Programme Life assurance at 4x salary Client & colleague referral bonuses Discounted legal fees Volunteering days & regular social events Sabbatical options & buy/sell holiday scheme An excellent bonus scheme Cycle to work & electric vehicle scheme They genuinely look after their people, and it shows - the culture is grounded, welcoming and team-focused. This type of role rarely comes up so apply directly or reach out to arrange a confidential chat! Yolk Recruitment is an equal opportunities employer and embraces diversity in our workforce. We employ the best people for the job at hand and actively encourage applications from all qualified candidates, regardless of gender, age, race, religion, sexual orientation, disability, educational background, parental status, gender identity or any other protected characteristic.
