About the Practice

We represent a newly established Incorporated Legal Practice (ILP) based in Sydney's CBD, operating as part of a wider multidisciplinary professional services group. The practice sits alongside allied businesses in mortgage broking, financial products, migration services, and accounting, offering a steady pipeline of quality referrals and true cross-sector collaboration.

With a collegial and professional environment, this firm provides a refreshing balance: modern operations built upon traditional values. The workplace is supportive and sociable, with a strong emphasis on teamwork, quality client service, and professional excellence.

The Opportunity

This is a rare opportunity for a senior legal practitioner to join at ground level and play a pivotal role in the growth of the firm. For the right candidate, a genuine equity and partnership offering is available from day one, with full support to help establish and grow the legal brand.
