About Leigh Day
We are a top 100 law firm committed to claimant-only cases, ensuring that individuals have the same access to justice as the UK Government and large corporations. We’re not afraid to take on difficult and challenging cases, and our areas of practice include discrimination in the workplace, personal injury, defective products, financial services, and human rights abuses in this country and overseas.

About the team and the role
Leigh Day has a team of specialist claimant lawyers with unrivalled expertise in the field of personal injury. We have been identified by the leading legal directories as one of the country's leading firms of claimant personal injury solicitors. We have extensive experience in handling compensation claims for people who have suffered serious injuries, including amputation, brain and spinal injuries and for those involved in major disaster claims, accidents at work, construction site accidents, road traffic accidents and falling masonry injuries. As we act for the members of British Cycling and British Triathlon Federation, many of the claims will be for injured cyclists.

The purpose of this role is to support the personal injury team by liaising with Costs Draftsman on multi-track and disputed cases and chasing all allocated overdue debts by telephone, letter, and monthly statements to clients.
