Litigation Lawyers - 1+ yrs PQE

This is a standout opportunity for a litigation lawyer to join a highly respected boutique firm and work directly alongside an Accredited Specialist in Commercial Litigation.

If you’re looking for hands on experience, real mentorship, and exposure to a broad mix of quality litigation work, this is the kind of role that will fast track your development.

The Opportunity
You’ll work side by side with an experienced and well regarded litigation partner, gaining exposure to a diverse range of matters across:

• Supreme Court litigation
• VCAT (particularly building disputes)
• County Court matters
• Occasional Federal Court work (including bankruptcy)
• Property, estates litigation, and general commercial disputes

This is a genuinely varied practice; ideal for someone who wants to become a well rounded litigator rather than being siloed into one niche area.

Why This Role Stands Out

• Direct mentorship from an Accredited Specialist with decades of experience
• A busy pipeline of work; you’ll be hands on from day one
• Small, tight knit team where your contribution is valued
• Real responsibility and autonomy, balanced with strong support
• Flexible and understanding leadership; output focused, not clock watching
• Clear long term growth opportunity as the firm continues to expand

About You

• Open to level of PQE, but experience in litigation is required
• Solid understanding of litigation processes and procedures
• Strong work ethic and willingness to get involved
• Eager to learn, develop, and take ownership of your work

This role would suit someone who wants to be mentored properly, build confidence quickly, and be part of a collaborative team where they can genuinely make an impact.

The Future
There is real scope for progression as the firm grows. With succession planning in mind, this is an opportunity to join at an exciting time and play a key role in building the practice alongside an experienced and well connected practitioner.
