Graduate Program

Law Graduates

Building the law firm of the future now

Building the law firm of the future requires exceptional people, those who are challengers.

Our Law Graduate Program is for a period of one year and focusses on providing you with ways to challenge yourself, give you opportunities to break tradition and assist your team to achieve results and grow professionally.

We provide our Law Graduates with the opportunity to rotate between two teams over a 6-month period each, providing you with a broader understanding of the work we do and how our teams operate. To support your practical experience, our Learning & Development team will provide you with a series of structured learning opportunities. Early in the program you will receive an invitation to the annual national law graduate event, usually held in Sydney, for you to meet with other graduates on the program.

But it’s not just about doing legal work; it’s also about being part of our team and building networks. To shape and define what law looks like next.

You will be assigned a partner, a buddy and a great professional team to support you throughout the graduate program at the firm. Your buddy will help you with day-to-day questions and concerns. And your social life will be busy!

Early years
