The Team


MinterEllison has a leading insurance and complex disputes practice across its Australian offices. We act for corporates, insurers, and government self-insurers (state and federal). We advise on complex insurance and regulatory compliance issues, and we manage complex insurance disputes, both litigated and non-litigated.


The Role

You will manage a caseload of insurance litigation cases in the NSW Magistrates Court and NSW Supreme Court, and help with other civil litigation matters. You will also assist the Partner in developing and providing legal and strategic advice to insurers, private clients, and government clients on insurance and dispute issues.


This role may involve some solicitor advocacy, and briefing and instructing counsel on more complicated matters.


More About You
