The Opportunity

To keep up with continued growth in our Dispute Resolution practice area, we’re looking for a talented and driven 1-2 PQE lawyer to join our team. This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced and versatile commercial disputes lawyer looking to further develop their technical knowledge and practical skills in a fast-paced and collaborative environment.

Our practice focuses on a broad mix of litigious and pre-litigation advisory matters, so if you like variety, lots of client contact, and taking ownership of your matters, this may be the ideal position for you. Given the nature of the work and the current mix of the team, hands-on experience in disputes relating to contract law, Australian Consumer Law and the Corporations Act is essential. Additional experience in relation to disputes involving regulators, commercial and retail leasing, construction, or intellectual property is highly desirable.

Candidates should be confident with processes and rules of the NSW Courts and the Federal Court. Experience in other jurisdictions will be highly regarded, as will experience acting in proceedings before the NSW Civil and Tribunal Administrative Tribunal (or other state equivalent bodies).
