Description

Large Loss Lawyer – Complex Injury 

📍 Bolton | 🕒 Full-time (35 hours)

Join a leading complex injury team handling high-value, high-impact claims

We have an opportunity for a Large Loss Lawyer to join our specialist Complex Injury team, working on challenging, high-value claims within coverage as well as EL/PL/RTA and claims within the MIB (Motor Insurers’ Bureau) space.

This role offers the chance to work on multi-track matters ranging from one hundred thousand to over a million, including catastrophic injury cases, while collaborating with experienced the Lead Lawyer and sophisticated insurer clients. 


What You’ll Be Doing

You’ll play a key part in progressing complex injury claims from instruction through to resolution, taking responsibility for both your own caseload and supporting on larger matters.

Your core responsibilities will include:
  • Managing a caseload of complex multi-track injury claims (typically one hundred thousand up to five hundred thousand) 
  • Supporting the Lead Lawyer on catastrophic injury claims exceeding a million 
  • Advising insurer clients on liability, quantum, indemnity, and strategy
  • Drafting pleadings, defences, and counter-schedules in complex cases
  • Conducting forensic analysis of medical and liability evidence
  • Preparing technical advice and reserve/valuation assessments using tools such as Ogden Tables 
  • Representing clients at mediations, joint settlement meetings (JSMs), and conferences
  • Building strong relationships with clients, counsel, and experts
  • Supporting and mentoring junior colleagues within the team


About You:

We’re looking for a confident and commercially aware legal professional who thrives on complexity and delivers high-quality outcomes.

You will have:
  • Qualification as a Solicitor, CILEX, or equivalent legal experience
  • Proven experience handling high-value, multi-track personal injury claims.
  • Strong understanding of litigation practice, case law, and insurance principles
  • Excellent analytical skills and attention to detail
  • The ability to prioritise, meet deadlines, and perform under pressure
  • Confident communication and client-facing skills
✨ Experience with the MIB, Uninsured/Untraced Drivers Agreements, or Article 75 is advantageous—but not essential.

What you’ll get in return
  • Exposure to high-value, complex and catastrophic injury work
  • Opportunities to develop your technical expertise and client relationships
  • A collaborative environment where you’ll work closely with experienced lawyers
  • Support to grow your career and build your own caseload and reputation

Ready to take the next step?

If you’re looking to advance your career in complex, high-value litigation within a supportive and ambitious team—we’d love to hear from you.
