Overview

Are you a Solicitor, CILEX Lawyer, or an Experienced Paralegal ready to take your career to the next level? We’re expanding our market‑leading Fraud team within CSG and looking for passionate legal professionals to be part of something exceptional in our Casualty Fraud team. Our Fraud team is a multi‑award‑winning powerhouse, known for its bold and proactive approach to defending complex insurance fraud claims. From pre‑litigation to high‑stakes litigation, we tackle technical cases and work closely with clients and law enforcement agencies to disrupt organized fraud networks.

Responsibilities

As part of the Property fraud team, you’ll handle complex and high‑value claims involving fraudulent property damage, exaggerated loss, and staged incidents—often linked to organized fraud networks. Your work will involve investigating and defending against a wide spectrum of fraud types, identifying fraud indicators, developing case strategies, and delivering commercially focused legal advice that supports our clients’ anti‑fraud objectives. You will take ownership of a caseload of predominantly litigated claims, all with fraud concerns, and work across multiple clients under delegated and non‑delegated authority agreements, with the support of experienced leaders.

• Manage fraud‑focused claims with autonomy and precision
• Be a trusted point of contact for clients
• Meet billing, time recording budgets and KPIs
• Support marketing and client training initiatives
• Stay sharp with ongoing technical and regulatory development

We’re looking for Solicitors, CILEX Lawyers, or Experienced Paralegals who:

• Have litigation experience within personal injury or a similar area
• Understand the Civil Procedure Rules
• Are confident communicators and skilled negotiators
• Think laterally and analytically
• Work independently and collaboratively
• Bring a commercial mindset to legal challenges
• Align with our cultural principles: Clear, Creative, Determined, Supportive

Fraud experience is a bonus—but not essential. We’ll provide full training to help you succeed in defending complex insurance claims.
