Lawyer – Disputes Resolution | Adelaide | Permanent Full Time
A well-regarded firm with a collaborative, high-performing culture is looking for a Lawyer (1.5–3 PQE) to join its Adelaide disputes team.
The opportunity
This role lets you build and refine your core litigation and dispute resolution skills across a broad range of corporate and commercial disputes. You'll work closely with senior practitioners and high-profile clients, with direct mentorship and meaningful exposure to every stage of a dispute, from pre-action correspondence and case strategy through to mediation, arbitration and court proceedings.
The team is smaller and close-knit, so you'll get genuine autonomy and direct client contact, and more responsibility than you would at this level in a larger practice. You'll be well supported and mentored by experienced lawyers. The firm is known for its culture, reputation and low turnover.
Key responsibilities
Draft pleadings, correspondence and advice to a standard suitable for review and settling by senior lawyers
Support matters through all stages of the dispute resolution process




Build an understanding of clients' businesses and commercial drivers so your advice reflects their objectives
Deal confidently with clients and other advisers, providing a high level of service
Manage deadlines and expectations, record time accurately and understand client billing practices
Support junior team members, build robust relationships within the team and take part in firm and community initiatives
About you
Admitted to practice law in Australia
1.5–3 years' post-qualification experience in litigation or dispute resolution
A sound grasp of legal principles and familiarity with court practice and procedure
A clear, concise communicator who explains legal issues in plain English
Detail-oriented, with accurate, error-free written work
Reliable, responsive and proactive: you take ownership and act with urgency to meet deadlines
Goals and solutions focused, with a commercial mindset
