About the role

Our client is a boutique Sydney litigation firm with a strong reputation in motor-vehicle property damage and insurance disputes — including credit-hire claims and appellate matters. They're growing, and hiring a litigation lawyer (2–8+ years PQE) into a hands-on role with genuine file ownership and a clear pipeline of ongoing work.

This is a litigation-focused position. You'll run a varied caseload with appropriate supervision, primarily across property damage (mostly motor vehicle), insurance disputes (defendant-side, with some plaintiff exposure), and business-interruption and large-machinery claims. Broader commercial work (business sales/purchases, leasing, disputes, corporate advice, franchising) is available if it interests you — but it's optional, not a core expectation.
