Are you an NQ–2 PQE lawyer looking for a new challenge? Join our team in Nottingham, where you'll play a key role in supporting clients affected by asbestos-related illnesses.
The role...You'll manage your own caseload of asbestos disease claims, handling matters from initial instruction through to settlement or trial under appropriate supervision. The role offers exposure to both pre- and post-litigated cases, as well as the opportunity to assist on complex and high-value work.
While previous experience of asbestos litigation is desirable, it's not essential. We welcome applications from those with general personal injury backgrounds who are keen to develop their expertise in this specialist area. Full training and support will be provided.
You'll work closely with experienced asbestos specialists, gaining hands-on experience and contributing to our commitment to achieving justice for clients affected by occupational illness.
Who we are looking for...We're looking for qualified lawyers with up to 2 years' PQE and experience managing their own caseload within personal injury or litigation. You'll bring strong organisational and communication skills, a proactive approach, and a genuine passion for helping clients.
Experience using electronic case management systems and working to deadlines will help you succeed in this busy and rewarding role.

For 100 years, leading social justice law firm, Thompsons Solicitors, has been fighting for the rights of the injured and mistreated and changing lives for the better. Since 1921, we have stood shoulder-to-shoulder with trade unions to implement key legal reforms and give a voice to those who might otherwise have been disadvantaged and marginalised.
Thompsons ran:
- the case that established the right for injured workers to be compensated in 1937
- the first asbestos case that was successful in the House of Lords in 1972
- the first equal pay for equal value claim in the UK and later in Europe (1993)
- the case against UK construction companies for blacklisting union members in 2016
- hundreds of cases on behalf of women who received negligent treatment at the hands of disgraced breast surgeon, Ian Paterson and behalf of those injured by mesh
Today, Thompsons employs 800 staff who work at 18 offices right across the UK. Key areas of legal specialism include: personal injury, serious injury, asbestos diseases, medical negligence, road traffic accidents, accidents at work, industrial diseases and trade union law. As a point of principle, the firm has never worked for employers or insurers.
Over the last 100 years, we have consistently won the cases that have advanced the law for working people, but, as long as there are employers who put profit before the safety and rights of their workforce, there is always more to do. We continue to expose injustice, holding those responsible to account and campaigning for positive change.
We want to hear from anyone who is keen to progress a legal career with a firm that won't let up in its quest for fairness.
