About our Client: Our client is a prestigious national law firm specialising exclusively in family law. With offices across Australia, their Darwin team continues to grow and offers a supportive, close-knit environment without compromising on the resources and backing of a large, reputable practice.

Flexible hours, autonomy in file management, and clear performance goals are standard. The firm's streamlined systems and paralegal support ensure your time is spent doing what you do best—practising law, not admin.
Key Requirements:
  • Minimum of 4 years PAE in family law (private practice)
  • Strong experience with complex parenting and property files
  • Client-focused with excellent communication skills
  • Confident in managing files autonomously
  • Keen to engage in a team-focused, people-first culture
  • Comfortable with performance-based goals
On Offer:
  • Salary range: $120K–$160K + Super + KPI-driven bonuses
  • Flexible working arrangements to suit your lifestyle
  • Enjoy warm weather, coastal escapes, and a relaxed pace of life in Darwin
