These are exciting times at DAS Law, where we are experiencing continuous growth across our litigation teams. Now is an excellent opportunity to become part of a hard-working and amiable group of around 50 lawyers within the Complex Litigation unit at DAS Law. We are currently looking for a **Senior Associate** to join our Complex Professional Negligence team. In this role, you will handle a manageable caseload of intermediate and multi-track professional negligence cases, while overseeing a small team.

About the Opportunity:

  • DAS Law stands out with its unique and compelling business model compared to other mid-sized firms.
  • Located near Bristol Temple Meads station, our recently renovated city center offices provide a modern workspace.
  • Our team's well-being is a top priority, thus we offer flexible working arrangements and are open to discussing part-time options.
