Family Lawyer (2–6 Years PAE) – Gold Coast | Hybrid

The role A small, well-regarded family law practice on the Gold Coast is looking for a capable lawyer to join its team. You’ll carry a wide-ranging caseload of your own, working closely with an experienced and approachable Principal. You’ll also guide and support a Junior Lawyer, which makes this a natural next step if you want to start building leadership experience while staying hands-on with your own files.

Your practice will include

- Parenting matters
- Property settlements
- Domestic and family violence matters
- Court work, including appearances
- Negotiation, mediation and dispute resolution
- Drafting court documents, correspondence and agreements
- Running matters end to end, from first advice to resolution

Why you’ll enjoy it here

- Your files, your way. Real autonomy over your matters, with direct client contact from the start.
- A Principal you can talk to. Work alongside someone experienced who’s easy to approach and happy to share what they know.
- Your first leadership step.



Mentor a Junior Lawyer and grow your skills as a supervisor.
- Variety. A genuine mix of parenting, property and DV work, so no two weeks look the same.
- Room to grow. Interested in Wills & Estates? There’s scope to broaden your practice.
- Balance. Work from home one or two days a week.
- A team where you count. It’s a smaller practice with a relaxed, close-knit culture, and your input and ideas will be heard.

About you

- 2–6 years’ PAE in family law, with a current Queensland practising certificate
- Confident running your own files and appearing in court
- Organised, calm under pressure, and practical in your advice
- Empathetic with clients going through a hard time
- Keen to help a junior colleague develop
