Property disputes usually involve something very real, very expensive and very difficult to ignore.
Leases.
Development disputes.
Easements.
Restrictive covenants.
Possession issues.
Boundaries that have apparently been causing arguments since the dawn of time.
There is a live requirement in Newcastle at the moment for an experienced Property Litigation Solicitor, and I’m particularly interested in speaking with people from around 3 years PQE upwards.
This is really for someone who already knows they enjoy contentious property work and now wants to make sure the next move actually takes their career forward.
By this stage, the questions change.
Are you running your own matters?
Getting proper client exposure?
Being trusted to make decisions rather than just carry out the next step somebody else has already mapped out?
And, importantly, is there a credible route to something more senior?
The Newcastle market has some genuinely phenomenal property litigation work available, growing by the day, particularly for solicitors who want a broader mix of commercial property disputes rather than one narrow stream of cases.
The right move should give you better work, more responsibility and a clearer sense of where you are going.
Not simply a bigger caseload.
If you’re a Property Litigation Solicitor around 3+ PQE and would like a confidential view of what’s happening in Newcastle, speak to Neil Campbell at QED Legal.
I’ll tell you what I’m seeing, where the genuine opportunities are and whether any of them are worth your time.
