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, specifically within our Vehicle Hire Fraud team.
Our Fraud team is a multi-award-winning powerhouse—known for its bold approach to defending complex insurance fraud claims. We don’t just react; we lead the charge. From pre-litigation to high-stakes litigation, we tackle technical claims head-on and work proactively to disrupt organised fraud networks and professional enablers. Our collaborative work with clients and law enforcement agencies like IFED and the Regional Fraud Teams sets us apart.
As part of the vehicle Hire Fraud team, you’ll manage claims where individuals or companies dishonestly seek compensation for replacement vehicle costs after an accident. This includes:
- Phantom hire (billing for vehicles never provided)
- Inflated charges or unnecessary hire extensions
- Claims submitted without the policyholder’s knowledge
You’ll work on complex investigations, collaborate with clients and law enforcement, and help protect the industry from fraudulent practices.
If you're passionate about making a real impact in fraud prevention and want to work with a respected, collaborative team, we’d love to hear from you.
What you will do?
Our team manages a broad and challenging caseload of suspected fraudulent claims, acting on behalf of major UK insurers. Your work will involve investigating and defending against a wide spectrum of fraud types—from opportunistic individual claims to complex, organised fraud rings. You’ll play a key role in 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. You’ll work across multiple clients under Delegated and Non-Delegated authority agreements, with the support of experienced leaders. You will
- Manage fraud-focused claims with autonomy and precision
- Be a trusted point of contact for clients
- Meeting billing, time recording budgets and KPIs
- Support marketing and client training initiatives
- Stay sharp with ongoing technical and regulatory development

- 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.
What's in it for you?
- High levels of flexibility and a great work life balance - https://jobs.dacbeachcroft.com/whats-in-it-for-you/
