- Assist in supervising trainee solicitors, depending on experience level.
- Meet the continuing education requirements set by the Law Society and pursue additional training to stay updated with legal changes.
- Accurately record all time spent on matters and ensure timely billing.
- Enhance client relationships and actively promote the department's and firm's services.
- Participate in networking events and engage in business development activities as appropriate.
Candidate Profile:
- Proven competence in both contentious and non-contentious construction law.
- Ability to provide timely and budget-conscious legal advice.
- Commitment to delivering outstanding client service.
- Willingness to engage in all aspects of the role, including billing and business development.
- Interest in business development and participation in marketing initiatives.
- Exemplifies the qualities of a proactive team player.
Benefits:
