Makinson d'Apice is a progressive law firm built on it's 167 year history of excellence for incredible clients by exceptional lawyers. As a mid-sized firm with 220 plus employees, we are large enough to provide diversity of clients and challenging work, yet small enough to help grow your career. Our Banking & Finance team which is one of our largest practices (27 employees) has created a recent position for a senior lawyer to run and establish their litigation practice servicing their banking clients (non-bank lenders) whilst also working alongside our Building and Construction team. Currently the group undertakes all of their front/end transactional work however more recently they have been asked to undertake a significant amount of litigation and see a gap for someone to come in and do this work whilst also building further on their client relationships. Ideally you will have the following experience;
• Litigation, Insolvency and securities enforcement expertise, including mortgage enforcement.
• Experience advising various stakeholders including financial institutions, insolvency practitioners, directors and creditors on complex commercial disputes.
• A specialist in corporate and personal insolvency, restructuring (including small businesses), commercial litigation and PPSA.
• Experience involving receiverships, liquidations, voluntary administrations and financial services litigation.

This position will suit a senior lawyer who is extremely ambitious and is keen to build their own practice in an already established team, as such there is a genuine opportunity for VERY quick promotion A client following is not necessary, however you must be someone who enjoys targeting work opportunities as apposed to just doing it If this sounds like you please call Lucy Cullinan, Talent Lead for a completely confidential chat on 0423 841 503 or email her at
