## Description (the employer's text)

Keoghs is looking for a talented EL/PL Lawyer to join its Casualty team in Bristol.

This is a rare opportunity to develop your career on a broad and highly technical caseload that goes well beyond traditional EL/PL litigation. You'll work very closely with a recognised leader in the industry, assisting on complex and high-value claims for a diverse public sector client base, including police forces and local authorities.

The work is varied, intellectually stimulating and often high profile, with claim values ranging from substantial six-figure sums to matters worth millions of pounds. You'll also gain valuable exposure to tribunal claims, providing a breadth of experience that is difficult to find elsewhere this early in your legal career.

### Responsibilities

- Assist on a varied caseload of complex and high-value Employer's and Public Liability claims
- Review and analyse liability, causation and quantum evidence
- Draft pleadings, witness statements and other legal documentation
- Liaise with clients, counsel, experts and witnesses
- Support trial preparation and attendance at conferences
- Assist with a range of tribunal matters, gaining exposure to additional areas of contentious work alongside your EL/PL caseload
- Conduct legal research and contribute to strategic advice on complex and often novel legal issues
### Skills

- Qualified Solicitor NQ-2yrs (also happy to consider non-qualified candidates with equivalent experience)
- Experience in personal injury, casualty litigation, insurance litigation or general dispute resolution
- Strong technical and analytical skills
- Excellent written and verbal communication abilities
- A genuine interest in complex litigation
### Benefits

- Exceptional mentoring and hands-on development from day one
- Hybrid working, with colleagues typically attending the office one day per week
- Brand-new offices in the heart of Bristol city centre
- Comprehensive benefits package, including private healthcare, pension, generous annual leave and a range of flexible benefits
- A dog-friendly workplace, so your four-legged companion is welcome to join you in the office!
Interested?

If you're a NQ to 2-year PQE solicitor looking for a role that offers genuine variety, high-quality work and the opportunity to learn from one of the leading names in casualty litigation, we'd love to hear from you.

This is a chance to build expertise across complex EL/PL litigation, public sector work and tribunal claims, while working on cases that are anything but ordinary.
