This is a great prospect for a defendant Personal Injury Lawyer to diversify their skills and build into Health-sector Professional Indemnity and Disciplinary.
You'll join a highly regarded Brisbane medico-legal defence practice acting for healthcare professionals, hospitals and health-related businesses across civil claims, regulatory investigations, disciplinary proceedings and personal injury matters. The role will have a strong health focus, while retaining exposure to broader insurance litigation.
The work includes defending negligence claims, responding to AHPRA and Ombudsman investigations, handling disciplinary and coronial matters, and advising on other sensitive issues affecting healthcare practitioners and organisations. It is a strong role for a lawyer who enjoys technically demanding defendant work and wants to develop deeper expertise in the health sector.
You'll work closely with senior practitioners known for their depth in health law, professional negligence and liability matters, with the support and mentoring needed to step into more responsibility as your experience grows.



The structure of the team makes this a good move for someone who wants hands‐on development without being left to figure things out alone.
The broader practice also includes public liability and other insurance matters, so the role offers a useful level of variety alongside its core medico‐legal focus. That should appeal to a lawyer who wants to build a more specialised practice while keeping a broader defendant litigation skill set.
The culture is another genuine advantage. This is a technically strong insurance team with a more relaxed and approachable environment than many specialist firms in the market. Targets are achievable, bonuses are generous for those who exceed them, and the overall setting is well‐suited to someone who wants high‐quality work without the harder edges that can come with some insurance practices.
This role will suit a Lawyer or Associate with defendant personal injury or insurance litigation experience who is ready to move into a more specialised health‐facing practice and build their capability across professional indemnity, disciplinary and regulatory work.
