- Occupational health / disease
- Property Litigation
- Inquests & Regulatory
- Motor Fraud / Casualty Fraud
- Alternative Dispute Resolution
- Costs
- Employment
This position is flexible on location, and we welcome applications from candidates nationwide. Given our firm’s flexible working policy, location will not be a restricting factor for applications. Barristers will be able to choose if they wish to work fully remotely or in a hybrid way.
What you will do?
- Primarily acting as counsel for clients in general civil litigation claims.
- Providing a full and tailored client service from start to finish.
- Providing support and guidance for other barristers with similar practice areas in a collegiate manner.
