Yolk Legal is working with a highly regarded UK law firm that is continuing to grow its specialist military claims practice in Cardiff. Due to sustained workload and team expansion, the firm is looking to recruit multiple junior solicitors to support noise-induced hearing loss injury claims.

The successful candidates will join an established, supportive team and take ownership of their own caseloads, with scope to develop technical expertise and progress quickly.

Key responsibilities:

Managing a caseload of military-related claims with minimal supervision
Taking initial instructions and drafting witness evidence
Reviewing and managing large volumes of disclosure
Assessing medical evidence and expert reports
Preparing court documentation and schedules of loss
Liaising directly with clients, counsel and experts
Advising on breach of duty, liability and quantum
Supporting and supervising junior team members and paralegals where requiredThe experience you will have:

Qualified solicitor (NQ-3 PQE ideal, but flexibility for the right experience)

25+ days' annual leave plus bank holidays
Birthday day off and additional CSR days
