The Civil Team at 1COR Brighton are recruiting up to two third six pupils.

1COR Brighton are a long-established common law set and the annexe of 1COR London, with a combined total membership of 125 barristers. 1COR Brighton have an excellent reputation as a regional set with a number of members consistently ranking highly in the legal directories. We are committed to equality & diversity and have a supportive work environment which places well-being at the heart of what we do.

We have a substantial flow of junior work in areas such as personal injury, contract disputes, property, landlord & tenant, trusts of land, inheritance and public utilities. Candidates can expect to attend court regularly from the outset. In-house opportunities exist for candidates with suitable experience.

Candidates must be able to demonstrate a solid grounding in civil litigation and be committed to developing a successful specialist civil practice.

Whilst the focus of the vacancies is civil litigation, candidates who have general common law experience will also be considered for one of the two vacancies as there is scope for suitable candidates to cover family and criminal work from time to time should they be interested in doing so.

How to Apply

Candidates should send their CV, covering letter, summary of the work undertaken so far in pupillage to brightonpupillage@1cor.com. Candidates are encouraged to include our optional equality questionnaire (available here).

If you require any reasonable adjustments please let us know.

Applications will be considered on a rolling basis. Our deadline for applications is 31 July 2019 but may end sooner if the vacancies are filled.

The starting dates are flexible for successful candidates to begin immediately (if available) or as soon as convenient on successful completion of their pupillage at their current set.
