Full Time We're a national law firm with a local reach. Our philosophy is 'we're legal and financial experts that care' - something you'll find in the way we work with our clients and how we support our teams. But we're more than just a law firm - we're a team of people working together to help individuals and businesses navigate life's ups and downs. Working here you'll feel a part of our friendly and inclusive environment.
We'll value you for who you are and what you bring. We support each other and push boundaries to achieve incredible things and make a real difference to our clients and communities.
Your Role and What You'll Be Doing
This is a superb opportunity for a Solicitor to join our commercial legal expense insurance team who specialise in property claims. In this role, you can expect to develop your knowledge and expertise by working as part of a successful team in one of the UK's leading law firms. The role will be based from our Sheffield office.
The successful candidate will work across a wide variety of claims for damages to property, nuisance, and trespass, most of which are funded through legal expenses insurance. Examples of claims in nuisance would be disputes over rights of way, rights to light, loss of support to land and flooding, whereas trespass claims are typically boundary disputes, determining the location of a boundary line and considering whether ownership of land has been acquired over time (adverse possession).
Irwin Mitchell forms part of the insurance panels and therefore receives direct instruction from insurers to handle such claims. Once received, you will be expected to work closely with clients (both businesses and individuals), ensuring you are thoroughly investigating their issues and providing them with exceptional legal advice to achieve the best possible outcome in their claims.

Our Benefits - What We Can Offer You
25 days holidays as standard plus bank holidays - You can 'buy' up to 35hrs of extra holiday too. Generous and flexible pension schemes. Volunteering days - Two days of volunteering every year for a cause of your choice (fully paid). Westfield Health membership, offering refunds on medical services alongside our Aviva Digital GP services. We also offer a wide range of well-being initiatives to encourage positive mental health both in and out of the workplace and to make sure you're fully supported.
