7 months ago


Bristol, United Kingdom DAS UK Group Full time

**About The Role**:
***

These are exciting times at DAS Law, where we are going through a period of sustained growth across our litigation teams. This is a great time to join a hard-working and friendly group of around 50 lawyers who together make up the Complex Litigation unit at DAS Law. We are now seeking an Associate within the Complex Professional Negligence team, who is keen to manage a varied caseload of claimant professional negligence matters across a range of professions, acting on behalf of both individuals and business clients. This is an excellent opportunity for either Associates, or Paralegals that are keen to develop in a supportive environment.

**Why us?**

DAS Law has a unique and compelling business model which sets us apart from other mid
- sized firms.

The insurance arm of DAS underwrites legal expenses insurance and has millions of customers across the UK. When customers face a legal problem, whether a contract, property, employment or personal injury dispute, their legal cover gives them access to a panel of skilled lawyers to help resolve those disputes. DAS Law sits at the heart of that panel, and therefore benefits from a steady influx of cases every year from the insurance group.

Only a stone’s throw from Bristol Temple Meads station, we have newly refurbished and modern city centre offices. Our staff are at the heart of everything we do, and we support flexible working options, and are happy to discuss part-time hours for these opportunities.

In addition to a steady supply of high-quality litigation from the DAS Insurance Group, we offer a highly competitive benefits package including a generous pension, group income and legal protection and a host of products aimed at wellbeing.

**More about the team**:
Headed up by Laura Loney, you will join a highly-skilled and supportive team specialising in intermediate and multi-track professional negligence claims as well as ancillary claims arising from these cases including property misrepresentation claims. The team also deals with wider commercial litigation cases as and when demand requires this. The professional negligence team sits within the larger Complex Litigation unit headed up by a partner, Will Ellerton.

**About You**:
***

As a team we are passionate and enthusiastic about what we do. There is a genuine commitment to giving our people early responsibility and you will regularly run cases from inception to ADR or trial and assist other members of the team.
- AT DAS we encourage our people to work flexibly and achieve a work-life balance that works for them. In return for your commitment we will offer you generous remuneration and a benefits package to include:
- 25 days holiday with the option to buy up to a further 5 days
- Company pension scheme with the option to increase contributions
- Group Income Protection for all employees
- Group Legal Protection for all employees
- A choice of either European Motor Assistance or Home Emergency Assistance
- Salary sacrifice benefits including Cycle scheme
- A comprehensive wellbeing programme including an employee Health Cash Plan
- Access to our employee discounts hub offering exclusive discounts across thousands of retail partners, including discounted gym memberships at over 3,000 gyms across the UK
- The option to join our Sports and Social club which organises discounted events such as theatre visits, wine tasting and shopping trips

**_ If you think you would be a good match for this role and can demonstrate some transferable experience please apply, regardless of whether you meet all the criteria listed above._**
