Job description
Our client has an established and growing practice related to its dispute resolution work in the trusts, estates and relationship property areas and is now looking for someone that has leadership skills, to make their mark in this area and work in collaboration and with the support of partners and team members across the firm.
This role could appeal to you if you're a civil litigator but particularly enjoys disputes that relate to trusts, wealth protection, estates and RP and want to carve out a bit of a specialty for yourself in this area. Likewise, you may feel there's lack of room to progress in your current role and would like to find a firm where there aren't bottlenecks to progression.
What You'll Be Doing:
In this role, you’ll be working closely with high-net-worth clients, both locally and internationally, on some pretty interesting and complex matters that are litigated around trusts, estate and relationship property matters before ADR and court processes. There is a team of experts on the advisory side so when work becomes litigious you'd collaborate with them on files. There would be a partnership trajectory for someone in this role as a growing area within the firm with realistic expectations around hours and budgets.
What We’re Looking For:
For a confidential chat to learn more, contact Anand Ranchhod on 027 2746 186 or Bob Kou on 027 274 5926 or by sending your CV and academic transcript to anand@colegal.co.nz or bob@colegal.co.nz.
