Full Job Description

Practice Family Law. Leave the Rest to Us.

If you're an Associate Family Lawyer looking to build your expertise within a leading specialist family law firm, this role has been designed with you in mind.

You've developed solid foundations in family law, gained experience managing matters and working closely with clients, and you're now looking for:

Exposure to more complex and rewarding matters
Mentorship from experienced family law practitioners
Greater responsibility and autonomy
A clear pathway for career progression
A firm where you can focus on practicing law, not everything around it

If that resonates, we'd like to speak with you.

About Unified Lawyers

Unified Lawyers is Australia's largest and fastest-growing specialist family law firm.

Family law is all we do.

Our lawyers regularly work on complex parenting disputes, high-net-worth property matters, family violence proceedings and matters involving international asset structures.

As we continue to expand nationally, we are looking to appoint an Associate to join our growing team.

Why Join Us?

Most family lawyers didn't enter the profession to spend their time generating work, chasing invoices or dealing with administrative burdens.

We've built a structure that allows our lawyers to focus on legal work while our support teams take care of the rest.

This includes:

A dedicated Client Care Team managing enquiries, consultations and client onboarding
Strong administrative and accounts support
A consistent pipeline of quality matters
No expectation to build your own practice from scratch

You'll spend your time doing what you're trained to do: practicing family law and developing your expertise.

A True Specialist Family Law Firm:

Unlike firms where family law sits within a broader practice, our entire business is built around it.

This means you'll benefit from:

Working alongside specialist family lawyers
Exposure to a broad range of family law matters
Systems and processes designed specifically for family law
Ongoing mentorship and technical development
Opportunities to learn from experienced Senior Associates, Special Counsel and Partners

Career Progression That Matches Your Goals

We recognise that every lawyer's career journey is different.

Whether your goal is to:

Build technical expertise in family law
Work towards managing your own complex caseload
Develop advocacy skills and courtroom experience
Progress to Senior Associate and beyond
Establish yourself as a recognised family law specialist

You'll be supported to build a career aligned with your ambitions.

Our continued growth is creating genuine progression opportunities for lawyers who want to take the next step.

The Opportunity

In this role, you will:

Manage family law matters with appropriate supervision and support
Work on parenting, property and financial matters
Draft legal documents and correspondence
Participate in mediations, negotiations and court appearances
Build strong relationships with clients during significant life events
Collaborate with experienced practitioners, barristers and external professionals

You'll have access to experienced mentors while developing the confidence and capability to manage increasingly complex matters.

About You

To succeed in this role, you will bring:

2-5 years PAE in Family Law
Experience assisting with and managing family law matters
Exposure to the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia
Strong drafting and communication skills
Sound judgement and attention to detail
A client-focused approach
A genuine passion for family law
A desire to continue developing professionally and progressing your career

LEAP experience is advantageous but not essential.

What We Offer

Highly competitive salary and performance-based bonus structure
Clear and realistic billable expectations
Hybrid and flexible working arrangements
Strong administrative and operational support
Genuine career progression opportunities
Ongoing professional development and continuing legal education

Additional benefits include:

Up to 25 days annual leave
Additional annual leave based on years of service
$20,000 "Golden Decade Adventure" travel reward after 10 years of service
Employer-funded wellness programme
Access to over 2,000 gyms and fitness facilities nationwide
Mental health and wellbeing support
Paid practicing certificate
Flexible parental return-to-work support
Regular team events and social activities

Confidential Discussion

We understand that career conversations at this level require discretion.

For a strictly confidential discussion, please contact: Anthony Singh, Talent Acquisition Manager [email protected]

Join a firm where family law is all we do, leadership opportunities are real, and ambitious lawyers have the platform to reach their full potential.
