Your new Company

Keystone Lawyers began as a one-person firm in 2010 and has grown into a national team with offices in Newcastle, Sydney, Brisbane, and the North Coast.

Their reputation is built on understanding each client's business and delivering practical, tailored legal solutions. This approach has earned them long-term partnerships with businesses across Australia.

But what really sets them apart is their people – a team that supports each other, values long-term relationships, and genuinely cares about the quality of their work.

What is the opportunity?

With a rapidly growing reputation for providing outstanding advice and support, Keystone are again looking to expand their team and engage the services of a Junior Lawyer to join their Commercial Litigation team.

In this role, you'll work closely with senior lawyers on a diverse range of commercial litigation matters such as:

  • Property and leasing disputes
  • Debt recovery and enforcement
  • Construction and building disagreements
  • Director and shareholder conflicts
  • Employment-related litigation
  • General commercial disputes

You will be working as part of a highly experienced and talented team and will receive excellent mentoring and support from Senior Associates and Partners and have plenty of opportunities for career growth and professional development.

The client base is varied and will be with both large and small businesses across a range of industries both locally and internationally.

To be successful in this role you will need:

  • 1–3 years' PAE in commercial litigation or a related area.
  • A team mindset – you're collaborative, helpful, and open to learning.
  • Strong written and verbal communication – clear, persuasive and professional.
  • Great time management – able to juggle competing deadlines and court schedules.
  • Attention to detail – you take pride in polished, accurate work.
  • A growth mindset – open to feedback, learning, and stepping up.
