Senior Family Lawyer – New Office Leader

About the role

An established family law practice in the Hills District, led by a progressive principal, is opening a new inner-Sydney office in early 2027. It is looking for a senior family lawyer to lead the office, a rare chance to step into a leadership role with an established practice behind you.

Key responsibilities

• Run a complex family law caseload end to end, from initial advice through to resolution
• Handle complex property settlements and parenting matters
• Lead the new office day to day and work directly with the principal

Required profile

• 8+ years of practice experience in family law
• Proven experience in complex property and parenting matters
• Admission in NSW and a current practising certificate
• Experience running your own files and managing clients
• The presence and judgement to lead an office
• Sydney based

What we offer

• Package of $200K to $250K ex superannuation, pitched at the seniority of the role
• Hybrid work arrangements, so you can structure your week around your files and your life
• The backing of an established practice, so you are not building from a standing start
• An early 2027 opening, giving time to plan your move and notice period
