A Credit Hire Fee Earner is wanted for an excellent opportunity with a Top 100 law firm based in Manchester. Salary is negotiable dependant on experience.

My client is a national, award winning practice with an enviable reputation in the market.

You will manage your own caseload of Pre and Post Litigated Defendant Credit Hire files from start to completion.

As a Credit Hire Fee Earner, you will play a crucial role in ensuring clients receive the compensation they deserve for vehicle-related claims. This position requires excellent analytical skills, a customer-focused approach, and the ability to navigate complex legal procedures.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Case Management: Manage a caseload of credit hire claims, from initial consultation to resolution.

  • Claim Investigation: Conduct comprehensive investigations into claims, gathering evidence, and coordinating with external experts as needed.
  • Negotiation: Negotiate with insurers, opposing parties, and other stakeholders to achieve the best outcomes for clients.
  • Litigation: Draft legal documents, prepare cases for litigation, and represent clients in court proceedings when required.
  • Compliance: Ensure all work adheres to legal and regulatory standards, as well as the firm's internal policies.
  • Team Collaboration: Work closely with other fee earners, paralegals, and legal assistants to maintain a high level of service.
Applications are invited from defendant or claimant fee earners or paralegals with a solid track record handling your own caseload of credit hire or RTA files. We are happy to consider candidates with pre litigation experience as full training on litigation will be given.

This is an excellent opportunity to join a growing, forward thinking, and ambitious law firm with good opportunities for progression and development on offer. Remote working is also available.
