Corporate & Commercial Litigation Lawyer or Associate
What if your next private practice role could also include an in-house secondment?
Not years down the track, but as part of your career development.
This is one of the few Brisbane firms offering lawyers the opportunity to undertake genuine client secondments while remaining employed by the firm.
You'll step into an in-house legal team, gain invaluable commercial insight, strengthen client relationships and return to private practice with a broader perspective that most lawyers simply don't get.
Alongside this unique offering, you'll enjoy a genuinely balanced practice spanning both Corporate & Commercial Advisory and Commercial Litigation, giving you exposure to the full business lifecycle rather than being confined to one area.
If you're looking for a role that will make you a more commercially rounded lawyer, this opportunity stands apart.
ABOUT THE TEAM
You'll join a highly regarded boutique commercial practice working directly with a Queensland Law Society Accredited Specialist in Commercial Litigation and an experienced Senior Associate.
The team works collaboratively across advisory and disputes, with lawyers encouraged to understand their clients' businesses, not just their legal issues.
You'll enjoy direct mentoring, meaningful responsibility and exposure to sophisticated commercial work from day one.
THE WORK
Unlike many firms where lawyers are siloed into either front-end or back-end work, this role offers a genuine mix of Corporate Advisory and Commercial Litigation, including:
Corporate and commercial advisory
Business transactions and restructures
Commercial contracts
Shareholder agreements and disputes
Commercial litigation and dispute resolution




Funding and finance arrangements
Property structuring
Trust advisory
Mining and resources matters
You'll advise an established client base ranging from entrepreneurial businesses and family groups through to ASX-listed companies and multinational organisations operating across construction, mining, transport, property, technology and professional services.More importantly, you'll build long-term client relationships and become a trusted adviser rather than simply working file to file.
Very few private practice firms can genuinely offer lawyers the chance to experience life as in-house counsel without leaving private practice.
Once established within the firm, you'll have the opportunity to undertake client secondments across a range of industries while remaining employed by the firm.
Current secondments include organisations within:
Mining
Construction
Property
Ports
Corporate organisations
These placements provide invaluable commercial experience, greater client exposure and a deeper understanding of how legal advice influences real business decisions, experience that will benefit your career long after the secondment concludes.WHY JOIN?
Unique in-house client secondment program
Rare blend of Corporate Advisory and Commercial Litigation
Sophisticated commercial work with quality clients
Flexible hybrid working arrangements
No formal billable hour targets
Genuine mentoring and hands‐on development
Collaborative boutique culture with approachable leaders
