Full Job Description

Work on complex property damage claims
Support the defence of institutional and sensitive abuse claims
High quality work and a clearer career trajectory

Associate, General Liability – Adelaide

Join the best. Be yourself.
At WK, we solve complex legal problems, challenge ourselves to innovate, and create impact for our people, clients, and communities. We’re Asia Pacific’s leading insurance and risk legal business, and due to growth, we’re expanding our General Liability team.

Our growth has been phenomenal. Why?
At Wotton Kearney, we attract the best clients because we have the best people, delivering exceptional service to become industry leaders, building a thriving business driven by our shared values - Focus on the Main Game, Have Each Other’s Back, and Be Real - so if you're looking for the best place to grow your career, talk to us.

The Role
As an Associate in our General Liability team, you’ll work closely with senior lawyers and partners on complex, high‑value insurance matters, while running your own files with increasing autonomy. The role offers a broad mix of general insurance work, with particular exposure to property damage and institutional abuse matters, alongside personal injury and product liability work.

Our General Liability practice is known for handling complex, sensitive and high‑profile defendant matters for leading domestic and international insurers. We are looking for someone who has worked across Public Liability, Personal Injury, Product Liability, or equivalent General Liability matters on the defendant side.

What You’ll Do:

Work on property damage claims arising from fires, equipment failure, construction defects and other insured events - an area of growing demand within the practice.
Support the defence of institutional and sensitive abuse claims.
Assist on product liability matters, including multiparty and representative proceedings, often involving interstate and international insurers.
Act on a broad range of general liability and personal injury matters.
Provide coverage and liability advice across general liability and related policy lines.
Draft pleadings, evidence and advice, and manage matters under appropriate supervision.
Work directly with insurer clients, experts and counsel, building trusted long‑term relationships.
Contribute to team workflow, knowledge sharing and mentoring of junior lawyers.

What We’re Looking For:

A mid‑level Associate with around 4–5 years’ PQE in insurance litigation or general liability matters.
Experience (or a strong interest) in property damage and/or institutional abuse work.
Strong technical, drafting and analytical skills, with a commercial, practical approach to problem‑solving.
Someone looking for high quality work and a clearer career trajectory.
A collaborative mindset and commitment to delivering excellent client outcomes.

Why Wotton Kearney?

Industry Leaders & Innovation Pioneers - We don’t just keep up with change; we drive it. We were the first Australian law firm to launch Cicero, the country’s first AI product built for legal professionals.
Recognised Excellence - Ranked Australia’s best insurance law firm (Best Lawyers 2026) and consistently ranked Band 1 across legal directories.
FLEX for all -We care about client outcomes, quality, and business and cultural contributions. If you can make that work by working part-time, working “irregular hours” or working from home - then so can we.
Growth & Mentoring - We invest in you with hands-on mentoring, training, and career development, keeping you ahead in the legal and insurance industries.
A Culture That Sets Us Apart - Open, collegiate, and passionate about everything we do. We don’t just talk about culture; we live it.
Giving Back - From building homes in Cambodia to fun runs and bake sales, there are plenty of ways to make an impact beyond the office.
Leaders of the Pack - As one of Australia’s fastest-growing law firms, we know where we’re headed and we want you on the journey with us.
Putting People First - We offer generous parental leave up to 26 weeks, purchased annual leave, home office allowances, health and wellbeing benefits, education assistance and more.
