There is a gap at the top of our Family Law team, and we’d rather fill it with the right person than the fastest one.

If you have three-plus years in family law behind you, you already know how heavy this work can be. You’ve sat with people at their lowest and untangled a trust structure at 9pm, and you’ve earned a place that values that. We’re a Western Sydney firm that started in 2011 and has kept growing, and our family team needs another experienced pair of hands.

The deal in plain English

Your office is at Level 48, 8 Parramatta Square, literally above the train station. Light rail, ferry and the M4 are all close by, and the coffee is excellent.

You’ll work closely with our senior lawyers, who actually want to hear what you think.

You’ll have your own caseload of proper, meaty matters, and the freedom to run them.

You’ll help the juniors find their feet, because someone did that for you once.

What lands on your desk

- Big property settlements, including ones with trusts, companies and third parties
- Parenting disputes, relocation and international cases included
- Child support assessments and disputes
- Multi-party, high-conflict proceedings
- Domestic and family violence matters, including the contested ones
- Mediations and dispute resolution conferences




- Federal Circuit and Family Court, from complex interlocutory applications to final hearings

Sounds like you if:

- You have 3+ years’ PAE, mostly in family law
- You know the Federal Circuit and Family Court rules and procedures like the back of your hand
- You’ve carried matters from start to finish
- Your drafting is sharp: affidavits, Initiating Applications, Responses, Financial Statements, Consent Orders, letters
- You’re at ease on your feet at mentions, mediations, directions and interim hearings
- You can be warm with a frightened client and firm with a difficult one, including high-net-worth and high-conflict clients
- You can juggle a full caseload without missing a court deadline
- You’re a good person to have in the room, and you want to build a long‑term career in family law

Nice to have:

- Complex parenting and property experience
- Comfort with e‑filing and practice management software
- A referral network, or an appetite for building one

Why people stay

We’re team-oriented and down‑to‑earth, with no stuffy hierarchy. We share knowledge, back each other up and take the work seriously without taking ourselves too seriously.
