Full Job Description

At Balance Family Law, we believe there's a kinder, more respectful and more effective way to practise family law.

We're a purpose-driven, multi-award-winning family and wills and estates law firm committed to helping people navigate separation with dignity. Rather than fuelling conflict, we focus on practical, client-centred solutions that help families move forward. Alongside family law, we also support clients with estate planning so they can plan confidently for the future.

We're looking for an exceptional law student who has already discovered that family law is where they belong. We're seeking someone who can demonstrate a genuine commitment to family law through their studies, work experience, volunteering, research, competitions, community involvement, or simply through the experiences that have inspired them to pursue this area of practice. We want to understand what has drawn you to family law and why you see it as the career you want to build.

If you have an interest in wills and estates as well, we'll happily help you develop that alongside your family law career.

About the Role

Working closely with our solicitors, you'll become an integral part of our team and gain meaningful, hands-on experience across a broad range of family law matters.

Your responsibilities will include:

Attending client conferences and preparing detailed file notes
Assisting with client onboarding, conflict checks and file management
Drafting correspondence, court documents and legal forms for solicitor review
Legal research
Preparing disclosure material, chronologies, briefs and mediation bundles
Assisting with court filings, diary management and billing administration
Providing outstanding client service while maintaining strict confidentiality
Supporting the smooth day-to-day operation of the practice

About You

We're looking for someone who is:

Able to demonstrate a genuine and sustained interest in family law
Currently studying an LLB or JD
Compassionate, emotionally intelligent and committed to helping clients through difficult times
An excellent written and verbal communicator
Highly organised, proactive and attentive to detail
Comfortable using Microsoft Office and quick to learn new technology

Why Join Balance Family Law?

This is more than a university job. You'll receive genuine mentoring, meaningful responsibility and the opportunity to develop your skills in a firm that invests in its people.

We offer:

Hands-on experience across family law matters
Mentoring from experienced family lawyers
Exposure to estate planning work
Flexible working arrangements around your university timetable
A supportive, collaborative team culture
The opportunity to grow with a firm that values long-term development

Location

Our office is located in Kingston, Canberra and will have a NSW Illawarra region presence from 2027.

We welcome applications from students based in the ACT and the Wollongong/Illawarra/South Sydney region.

Tell Us About You

Please submit your CV along with a short, creative cover letter, presentation or video telling us why family law is the area you've chosen to pursue and why you would like to join the Balance Family Law team.

Don't simply tell us you're passionate about family law. Show us.

We'd love to hear about the experiences, people or moments that sparked your interest, how you've pursued it, and why you believe Balance Family Law is the right place to begin your career.
