Gilbert Stephens is a thriving law firm based in the heart of Devon. We are immensely proud of our reputation built up over 100 years of serving our local communities. We provide a supportive environment for all colleagues and are committed to equality of opportunity in all our recruitment.

Our culture is at the heart of our business and centres on our most valued assets – our people and our clients. We build and sustain healthy relationships, which are based on us understanding our staff and client needs.

We operate six offices across Exeter, Crediton, Budleigh Salterton, Sidmouth, Ottery St Mary and Okehampton, and offer a competitive salary.

We are looking for an experienced litigation solicitor to join our team. This is a fantastic opportunity to be part of a close-knit team doing interesting and challenging work.

  • Handling a wide range of civil disputes, including contentious probate; professional negligence; partnership disputes (including farming partnerships); and property disputes, to include both commercial and residential landlord and tenant.
  • Providing legal advice and representation in traditional chancery practice areas involving disputes related to business, property, probate, and trusts.
  • Developing strategies for dispute resolution, including litigation, mediation, and negotiation.
  • Preparing legal documents and representing clients in court proceedings and in negotiations.
  • Staying updated with the latest legal developments and changes in civil dispute law.

    If you think you have the attributes and skills to join us, then we would love to hear from you. Please email your CV, together with any relevant supporting information to Dana Mulligan at:

    Gilbert Stephens LLP will not:

  • recognise submissions of unsolicited or speculative CV applications from recruitment agencies.
  • be liable for any fee / commission should we employ a candidate that applied to us directly or through an instructed agency that may also have been submitted as an unsolicited or speculative application from an uninstructed recruitment agency.

    In the event that a recruitment agency submits an unsolicited or speculative CV and then purports to render a claim for commission supported by correspondence and/or documentation containing a disclaimer indicating otherwise, our policy prevails.
