Catastrophic Injury Lawyer

Join Thompsons' nationally recognised Serious Injury team and help secure life-changing outcomes for injured people and their families.

As part of Thompsons, you'll work exclusively for injured people and their families, helping trade union members and others rebuild their lives following life-changing injuries.

You'll assist on high-value catastrophic injury claims, typically exceeding £1 million, including brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, amputations, severe orthopaedic injuries and complex polytrauma cases arising from road traffic collisions, workplace accidents and public liability incidents. You'll be involved in some of the firm's most significant brain injury, spinal injury and amputation claims from an early stage of your career.

Working alongside some of the most experienced serious injury lawyers in the country, you'll receive day-to-day supervision, mentoring and exposure to complex catastrophic injury litigation that many lawyers of equivalent PQE would not encounter elsewhere.

Our focus is on quality rather than volume, enabling you to become deeply involved in the strategic development of each case. Depending on experience, you'll have the opportunity to develop and manage your own caseload of complex multi-track serious injury claims, with support from senior lawyers.

As your experience grows, you'll take on increasing responsibility for your own complex caseload and benefit from clear opportunities for career progression. You'll work collaboratively across the team and have opportunities to support and mentor junior colleagues as your expertise develops.

We are seeking a qualified solicitor or legal executive with litigation rights, ideally with experience in serious injury litigation and a proven track record of running multi-track cases or assisting on serious injury cases. Experience in catastrophic injury cases is highly desirable.

Alongside strong technical knowledge, you will have excellent negotiation and communication skills, the ability to manage a significant caseload, and a client-focused approach that ensures individuals receive the highest standard of service.

Apply today and join a team committed to excellence in serious injury litigation, making a meaningful difference in the lives of those affected by life-changing injuries.
