Civil Litigation Lawyer - Remote

Overview

Lawhive is a new kind of law firm - one designed around lawyers, not just clients. We’re building a future where lawyers can focus on what they do best: delivering excellent legal advice, without the noise of admin, inefficient tools, or unnecessary overhead. Our platform supports experienced lawyers with a steady stream of quality client work, purpose-built technology, and the flexibility to work fully remotely, in a hybrid setup, or from one of our hubs - whatever suits your life and practice best.

We specialise in helping individuals and small businesses with legal issues that matter deeply to them. From property and tenancy to disputes and consumer rights. Behind the scenes, our AI supports routine admin and document work, helping you get back hours each week.

We’re on a mission to make legal help more accessible and affordable, and we believe the best way to do that is by empowering great lawyers to do their best work.

Join us and be part of a forward-thinking, fully remote legal team backed by top-tier investors including Google Ventures, Balderton, and TQ Ventures. We’ve just raised one of Europe’s largest Series A rounds in 2024 and are growing fast - with you at the centre of our next chapter.
