Overview Learn from an accredited specialist plus get CPD and mentoring support Real career progression with regular check-ins.
Be part of strategic planning and help shape the direction of the firm.
When people are going through a split, they don't want legalese.
They want straight answers, steady hands, and someone who can steer the ship through the storm.
That's where you come in.
This is a no-fuss, community-rooted law firm based in inner North Melbourne.
They're not a mega-city firm with 37 floors and a mission statement written by a branding agency.
They're local, practical, and have a focus on helpful advice to clients.
They're on the lookout for a Commercial Lawyer with at least 5 years PAE who can handle a diverse range of matters including buying & selling businesses, shareholder agreements and succession planning.
You'll work with a Partner, who's an Accredited Family Law Specialist, and you'll get direct access to clients, mentoring, and that valuable thing in a law firm – a team that actually has each other's backs.
What You Bring A sharp legal mind and steady hand – no drama, just results.
Enough experience to run your own files without training wheels.
A clear communicator who knows that being liked is a business advantage.
Someone who thrives in a team where respect matters.
What You Get In addition to flexibility and hybrid work that respects your personal life, this isn't the kind of place where your career sits idle while you wait for someone to retire.
Conversations about your future don't just happen at performance reviews – they're ongoing, straight-talking, and backed by action.
You'll get real mentorship from a seasoned Partner who actually cares where you're headed, not just what you billed last month.
They'll back you with proper CPD support, cover your Law Institute membership, and keep the team sharp by making sure knowledge doesn't stay locked in one office.
There's also an annual strategy day where your voice actually counts – because shaping the future of the business isn't just for the top floor.
It's for everyone in the room.
