About this opportunity

Koffels is a well-established mid-tier law firm with a global network focused on excellence and professional service. Our well-appointed offices are in the heart of Sydney’s CBD, close to shops and transport links, with views of the Harbour, the Opera House and Sydney’s Inner West.

Our specialist plaintiff litigation practice handles complex, high-profile historical intentional tort and institutional liability proceedings across Australian jurisdictions.

Our kind of lawyer

Do you cringe when a lawyer settles a matter for peanuts and tells the client it was a great settlement? Do you despair when you ask your colleagues what they think of the recent Court of Appeal decision and they stare at you blankly? Do you look up from your PC after drafting the most beautifully constructed SoC ever, and all you see is everyone on their social media? If that is you, then contact us. You are our kind of lawyer.

The role

An opportunity to join a high-performing plaintiff litigation team. You will work directly under the guidance of a Special Counsel on sensitive, high-value plaintiff litigation files.

This is a full-time position for a lawyer with 3+ years’ PAE and a current NSW practising certificate. We are always interested in hearing from experienced plaintiff litigators.

What makes this role great

  • Highly competitive pay.
  • Training and mentorship by a Special Counsel with decades of experience.
  • Exposure to high-profile litigation.
  • A hybrid office / WFH approach is available if you prefer it.
