Lawyer - Litigation & Arbitration
4 weeks ago
We have been engaged by a specialist litigation and arbitration law firm with offices in London and Doha. The firm is headed up by a highly impressive KC and a team of professors and expert lawyers. They have been engaged in many international and groundbreaking $mulitbillion worth cases both in the corporate and public sectors across the globe.
All of the work is high profile and advances their lawyers' development due to the flat structure of the firm and exposure to these individuals. Even those at 2 years PAE have a varied workload and not are not spending their time collating documents or working on research.
**Their areas of expertise are**:
Commercial Litigation - across a wide range of sectors including energy, construction and financial services.
International Arbitration
Public Litigation
Fraud and Regulatory Investigations
They are looking to hire a Lawyer with 2 to 5 years PAE to join the team in Doha, this is currently made up of a Lead Senior Associate and another less experienced Senior Associate. They often have more senior Lawyers in the office who are traveling for matters and the London Office is in contact on a daily basis. The London office and Doha office act as “one team”, matters are worked on by individuals from both offices all the time.
There are various reasons why joining this firm is more attractive than others, the key ones are:
From day one you are given a significant degree of responsibility - research, drafting, critical thinking and analysis, you’re also doing everything under the supervision of someone who has been doing the job at the very highest level for 35 years and you are always in close contact with them. One of the Senior Associates explained how beneficial this is, as an example, earlier this year they were sole counsel in the international court for the first time. The registrar commented that they came across with the knowledge and gravitas of someone with 10 years of experience.
Unlike firms who act as opposing counsel to them, the firm is sensitive to work-life balance, the lawyers do not work excessive hours and there are no billables. The firm is aware that this is an issue in the industry and proactively works to ensure their lawyers have a very good WLB. They can confidently say they beat any US, Top-tier, or international firm on this. So you get the best work without the unsustainable workload.
The firm will pay for sponsorship, visas, and relocation and highly attractive, tax free salaries are on offer.
The recruitment process will be an initial VC, then a formal interview, and submission by applicants of examples of writing, there will also be a series of standard questions to answer.
