We are looking for a recently admitted or junior solicitor who has the ambition, initiative and determination to become an outstanding lawyer.

This is an opportunity for someone who wants to learn, take responsibility, develop their legal judgment and gain practical experience across a diverse range of legal matters.

You will be involved in a broad range of matters, including:

- Litigation and dispute resolution – involvement in significant disputes, preparation of court proceedings, evidence, submissions and appearances in court.

- Commercial and business law – advising on commercial arrangements, business acquisitions and sales, contractual obligations and commercial transactions.

- Family law – involvement in parenting disputes, property settlements, financial proceedings and contested litigation.

- Managing matters progressively with increasing independence and responsibility.

- Business development

What We Offer
