Currently, we handle claims related to EU261/UK261 compensation for delays, cancellations, and denied boarding. We will soon be launching baggage claims as well.

The candidate must be free from conflicts of interest, meaning they can litigate against different airlines. Requirements: A valid lawyer’s/solicitor’s license and legal insurance. A law degree from an accredited institution. Experience with small claims, consumer rights, or aviation law is a plus but not required. Knowledge of relevant consumer protection laws and aviation regulations is a plus but not required. Proven success in in-court collection. Strong analytical and problem-solving skills to assess case merits, conduct legal research, and develop effective legal strategies. Ability to manage caseloads, prioritize tasks, meet deadlines, and track statutes of limitations. Experience in automating and standardizing claims management processes to scale quickly. Responsibilities: Preparing and filing batches of cases in courts against airlines, responding to legal defenses, leading enforcement of court decisions if necessary, conducting legal research, negotiating settlements, maintaining case records, and staying updated on legal developments in consumer protection and aviation law.
