Job Description

We are seeking a highly capable and independent Junior Lawyer to support a UK-based law firm across a diverse caseload involving civil litigation, family law, and commercial litigation. This is a fully remote role, ideal for someone with post-qualification or closely equivalent experience, who can work directly with solicitors on legal drafting, case strategy, client communication, and procedural matters.

The successful candidate will have a solid understanding of UK legal processes and will be comfortable handling matters from inception to resolution under supervision.

  • Conduct legal research and prepare case summaries, opinion notes, or procedural advice.
  • Liaise directly with clients, courts, and third parties on case progress.
  • Assist in preparing trial bundles, disclosure lists, and evidence management.
  • Monitor deadlines and ensure compliance with the Civil Procedure Rules (CPR) and Family Procedure Rules (FPR).
  • Support senior lawyers in hearings, correspondence, and settlement negotiations.
  • Contribute to internal case reviews and practice updates.

Requirements

  • Law degree or legal training.
  • 24 years of experience working on UK legal cases, ideally with exposure to civil, family, and/or commercial litigation.
  • Strong understanding of UK litigation processes, Civil Procedure Rules (CPR), and Family Procedure Rules (FPR).
  • Excellent legal drafting and research skills.
  • Strong attention to detail and ability to work independently in a remote setting.
  • Familiarity with UK legal software (e.g., LEAP, Clio, Proclaim) is an advantage.

Benefits

  • Opportunity for 100% remote work.
  • Competitive GBP compensation package.
  • Access to UK-specific legal research tools and practice management systems.
  • Ongoing professional development and UK legal practice exposure.

If you are passionate about leveraging your legal expertise to support a fast-paced UK law firm and grow your international legal experience, we'd love to hear from you.
