Manchester, United Kingdom KP Law Full time

The Firm

Established in 2020, KP Law (previously Keller Postman) is a specialist litigation boutique, focussing on collective redress.

The firm has over 100 employees across offices in London, Manchester, Birmingham, and Liverpool, , representing over 250,000 individual clients across a range of cases in areas such as product liability, competition, worker rights, data breach and privacy and financial services.

The firm's ethos is to combine the best legal talent with a strong operational and technological platform to enable its clients to pursue cases that could not otherwise be brought against large corporates as a result of their wrongdoing. Uniquely, KP Law is owned and fully financed by a recognised UK litigation funder (Legatus Holdings). All of its cases are for claimants and carried out under contingent fee agreements at no cost or risk to its clients.

KP Law was ranked Tier 1 for Group Litigation: Claimant in The Legal 500 UK Guide 2024. This follows our success in 2023 where we received a commendation for 'Litigation Boutique Firm of the Year' at The Lawyer Awards 2023 and won the Race Equality Initiative of the Year at the 2023 Women & Diversity in Law Awards.
