Are you an experienced Financial Mis-Selling Solicitor with a keen interest in financial mis-selling claims? This is an exciting opportunity to join a growing team that is making real waves in the sector - particularly in mis-sold PCP and car finance claims. You’ll manage a dynamic caseload from inception through to litigation, helping clients secure justice and financial redress.
  
The Role:
As a Financial Mis-Selling Solicitor, you will play a pivotal role in pursuing claims related to mis-sold PCP and car finance agreements. Your work will involve:

• Maintaining accurate client records and communication through the firm’s case management system.
• Providing informal training and guidance to junior colleagues, including paralegals and new litigators.
• Ensuring all work is compliant with relevant legal standards and FCA regulations.

• Strong understanding of PCP agreements and financial mis-selling matters.
• Experience managing your own caseload, including litigated claims, with minimal supervision.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with a clear and methodical approach.
• Meticulous attention to detail and confident handling of complex legal documentation.
• Strong organisational and diary management skills.
• Proactive, motivated, and capable of working effectively under pressure.
• A supportive team player who enjoys contributing to the development of others.
• Ability to work at pace without compromising on quality or client care.
