About HF
People. Not just lawyers

We’re not your typical law firm – we’re people with a passion for helping our clients and each other achieve the best possible outcomes. We are leading legal advisers to the insurance and commercial sectors across the UK & Ireland, known for our innovation, client focus, and long-lasting relationships. We do things differently, with a forward-thinking approach built around our clients’ needs, supported by cutting-edge technology and a culture built around people from a wide range of backgrounds who are taking an equally wide range of routes to building their careers in law.

About the team

Our counter-fraud department is the biggest of its type in the market, running over 700 cases to contested trials each year and winning most of them. We have secured over 2,000 findings of fundamental dishonesty since the rule was introduced (more than any other firm) and, in the process, recovered over £1m in legal costs for our clients every single year. 

We work in the civil and criminal courts, maximising sanctions and endlessly pursuing costs recovery from liars and cheats. We’re not afraid to shout about our results and regularly feature across a variety of media outlets (such as Claimed and Shamed), to provide a clear deterrent to would-be fraudsters.

Hear it from our Partner & Head of Counter Fraud, Jared Mallinson:

“For many years, we’ve worked hard to make sure the decisions taken by our lawyers every single day are aligned with the strategy and risk appetite of our clients. Our claims handling strategy is, and always will be, commercially focused. Its proven success is to deliver optimum claims cost without compromising our service.”

Ready to take on complex fraud cases in a team that’s redefining legal excellence?

Handle a caseload of hourly rate, litigated, non-DA complex motor fraud files
Run your own cases with confidence and autonomy
Get involved in advocacy - from applications to case management conferences

What do I need?

If you’ve got experience in personal injury litigation - especially on the defendant side or within the counter-fraud insurance sector - we want to hear from you.

You’ll thrive here if you’re:

Enthusiastic, self-motivated, and target-driven
A creative problem-solver with initiative
A team player with a strong work ethic and a passion for results

What’s in it for you?

Apart from the competitive salary you’d expect, our package of benefits reflects our values of partnership, innovation, and being real people. We’re committed to creating a dynamic workplace where everyone feels supported, empowered, and part of our success.
