The Company:

This worldclass law firm look to recruit only the best. They pride themselves on providing a supportive, positive and rewarding working atmosphere. Whatever your role, they will train and support you so that you reach your full potential.
Employees are treated as individuals, their unique talents and abilities respected. This firm believes that they perform best by using the range of skills of their workforce. Perhaps most importantly they are also committed to upholding their reputation as a decent place to work.

The Role:

We are looking for junior financial litigators to join the Financial Litigation group of their highly regarded Financial Markets Department. Applicants should have trained and qualified with a leading, ideally City firm with a minimum of two years’ Financial Litigation experience. Some insurance litigation experience would also be useful.

The group’s practice reflects the firm’s non-contentious financial markets practice and focuses exclusively on contentious work for financial institutions. Members of the group work alongside our non-contentious and transactional financial markets lawyers and have constant exposure to the business of financial institutions. The team has extensive experience of disputes concerning asset management, banking, brokerage, capital markets, derivatives, insurance and structured finance. In addition to expertise in the wholesale markets, the group also has substantial experience of disputes in the private banking and private capital sector.

As usual, we seek candidates with excellent academics who are genuine self starters. This is a rare opportunity to be part of a rapidly expanding international finance practice, working in a highly respected and supportive team.

The Financial Litigation group in London forms part of the firm’s wider international financial markets practice. It comprises 6 partners, 9 solicitors and 5 trainee solicitors.

NB: PQE levels are illustrative only and serve purely as a guide to candidates. Emerson Chase will welcome applications from individuals with more or less relevant experience than stated since such candidates may well be of interest to our clients.
