Personal Injury Solicitor | Military Claims | EL/PL | Industrial Disease | Litigation Solicitor
Remote / Hybrid Working | Yorkshire | £35,000 – £60,000 DOE
If you're searching for a role that sits somewhere between mainstream PI work and a genuine specialist caseload, this could be worth your attention.
QED Legal’s client is a specialist litigation practice with a strong reputation for handling personal injury, industrial disease and military claims, acting for serving military personnel, veterans and their families in complex compensation matters.
This is a focused litigation role within a growing specialist team dealing with military injury claims including hearing loss (NIHL), industrial disease, serious injury and wider service-related personal injury matters.
The firm is continuing to expand and is now seeking a qualified Personal Injury Solicitor (2+ PQE) with solid experience in litigation to join the team.
You will take responsibility for your own caseload and handle a mix of EL/PL, industrial disease, serious injury and personal injury matters, with full support and training provided to develop expertise in the military claims specialism.
This is a remote / hybrid role, offering flexibility alongside structured supervision and development. Candidates will be expected to attend the office during initial training or onboarding periods where required, particularly where transitioning into the specialist area.
To be considered, you will need to demonstrate:
- Qualified Solicitor status in England & Wales
- Minimum 2+ years’ PQE in Personal Injury, EL/PL, Industrial Disease or Civil Litigation
- Experience managing your own caseload from instruction to settlement
- Strong technical knowledge of liability, causation, quantum and litigation procedure
- Experience handling Personal Injury claims, EL/PL claims, Industrial Disease claims or Serious Injury cases
- Ability to review and interpret medical evidence, expert reports and witness statements
- Strong client care skills, particularly in sensitive or complex claimant matters
- A clear interest in developing a long-term specialism in military claims litigation
Candidates will typically come from one or more of the following backgrounds:
- Personal Injury Solicitor (Claimant or Defendant)
- EL/PL Solicitor / Employers Liability Lawyer
- Industrial Disease Solicitor (NIHL / asbestos / occupational disease)
- Serious Injury Solicitor / Multi-track PI Solicitor
- Civil Litigation Solicitor with claimant experience
- Insurance Litigation Solicitor seeking claimant-side move
This is a genuine opportunity to step into a specialist litigation environment where the focus is on quality work, technical development and long-term expertise rather than high-volume processing.
The team is established, growing, and well supported, offering a structured pathway into a niche and highly respected area of claimant litigation.
If you're a Personal Injury Solicitor, EL/PL Solicitor or Litigation Solicitor looking for a more specialist, rewarding and technically interesting move, this role offers a strong next step.
