Job Description
Fed up of the UK and fancy a lifestyle change? A leading Bermuda law firm is looking for an experienced Senior Litigation Attorney to join its Dispute Resolution team in Hamilton. The advocacy is yours. This is a practice to build and shape, with long-term partnership as the stated ambition, rather than a queue to join. Bermuda is one of the world's major insurance, reinsurance and investment fund centres, so the work is cross-border and high value by default. Bermuda also has no personal income tax.
Thinking about a move overseas? Bermuda is calling.
Why Bermuda?
- Almost tax-free income
- Year-round warm climate
- Stunning beaches and outdoor lifestyle
- Safe, friendly community
- Relocation support
- Sponsored work permit
What you'll be doing as a Senior Litigation Attorney

- At least 10 years' post-qualification experience

- Significant restructuring and insolvency experience
- A track record of leading files and managing complex, high-value disputes
- Experience gained in leading London, offshore, Commonwealth or international firms
- Strong commercial awareness and real business development capability
- Established or developing relationships with insolvency practitioners, accountants and related professionals
- A collaborative approach, with an interest in mentoring junior lawyers
- Ambition and motivation by long-term partnership prospects
- Excellent drafting, legal analysis and client relationship skills, plus sound commercial judgement and discretion
PARTICULARLY WELCOME
- A UK Bar background, or a strong advocacy record
- Offshore experience in Bermuda, the Cayman Islands, BVI or the Channel Islands
- Dual-qualified or Commonwealth experience, including Australia, Canada or South Africa
- London Magic Circle, Silver Circle or leading offshore firm experience
