Osbornes Law is recruiting for two paralegals to assist partners William Ford and Edward Taylor in the Housing, Social Care and Public Law department with their legal aid caseloads comprising public law, housing, community care, age disputes, and welfare benefit casework. Experience in any of these areas and legal aid generally is desirable.

This is an excellent opportunity to work within a successful team and alongside leading individuals ranked in the Legal 500 and Chambers & Partners directories. The successful candidate will have an opportunity to work on interesting and challenging cases, as well as test case litigation. The department is renowned for its work achieving justice for the most marginalised in society.
