Lawyer

Overview

Principal - Strongman & Crouch experienced in conducting complex disputes, litigation, insolvency matters and negotiations for owners, key decision-makers…

Strongman & Crouch is offering an exciting opportunity for a passionate, client-focused lawyer to join our highly regarded Commercial Disputes and Insolvency practice in the heart of the Melbourne CBD.

What We’re Looking For

We’re seeking a lawyer with:

• 2+ years PQE in commercial litigation and/or insolvency
• A desire to build a deep, strategic skill set through direct exposure to complex, high-value disputes
• An interest in working closely with principals and clients, not sitting behind layers of hierarchy
• A mindset that values collaboration, initiative, and quality outcomes

This role is ideal for a lawyer who wants to be more than a cog in a large machine, thrives on meaningful responsibility and direct involvement in strategic decision-making, and seeks an environment where talent is recognised, not buried.

What the Role Involves

• You'll collaborate closely with experienced principals and clients, often dealing directly with senior decision-makers, and:
• working on significant and complex disputes in higher courts
• regularly attending and instructing in court
• engaging in mediations, negotiations, and regulatory or disciplinary enforcement actions.

You’ll be part of a genuinely collegiate team that values precision, initiative, and impact.

What We Offer

We are committed to building your long-term future with us. You’ll enjoy real career development in a nimble, innovative environment where you’ll have genuine input into the firm’s direction. The remuneration package materially exceeds that offered at top-tier and international firms—but accompanied by a more balanced workload.

Our reputation drives high-quality, referral-based work from other firms and barristers, and our 145-year legacy speaks for itself. We are proud to be listed as the only true specialist firm in Doyle’s Leading Commercial Litigation & Dispute Resolution Firms – Victoria (2025).

How to Apply

If you’re ready to take the next step in your career with a firm that values excellence, autonomy, and integrity, we’d love to hear from you.
