If you're an experienced insurance lawyer looking to move away from volume-driven work and focus on complex, high-value matters, this chance could be worth exploring.

Our client is a well-established and highly regarded insurance practice with a strong reputation in the market and continued growth. You’ll join a national team of around 30 lawyers known for delivering excellent results while maintaining a genuinely supportive, approachable and down-to-earth culture.

Complex & Catastrophic Claims
This is an opportunity to work on some of Queensland’s most significant catastrophic personal injury matters.

Over the past two years, the team has resolved around 40 claims valued between $1 million and $8 million, giving you exposure to challenging matters that require strong technical expertise and strategic thinking.

This is not a high-volume practice. Instead, you’ll have the chance to take ownership of complex files from an early stage and work alongside experienced Partners on matters of real significance.

There is also the opportunity to become involved in workers’ compensation matters if you’re interested in broadening your practice.

About You You’ll be a Senior Associate or Special Counsel with approximately 5+ years’ PAE and strong defendant insurance experience.

You’ll be confident managing matters with a good level of autonomy and looking for a role where the quality of your work, career development and long-term progression are genuinely valued.





You’ll have plenty of ownership over your matters, while also working closely with experienced Partners and a highly capable team of lawyers and support staff.

What’s on Offer?

- Complex and high-value catastrophic claims work.
- No volume-driven practice or routine files.
- Competitive remuneration tailored to your experience.
- Genuine opportunities for ongoing career development.
- Accessible and highly regarded Partners.
- Supportive, cooperative team environment.
