Balanced with a strong internal emphasis on culture and values, we combine innovation with commercial savviness to deliver rewarding outcomes to all our clients.

Graduate Program

Our graduate program is built around our core practice groups. During the 12-month program, you will rotate through up to five of the following groups:

• Casualty
• Corporate
• CTP
• Employment
• Financial Services Advisory
• Government Regulatory and Administrative Law
• Litigation and Dispute Resolution
• Medical Negligence
• Private Clients
• Property
• Recoveries
• Workplace Risk and Compensation

The program is designed to give you exposure to a broad range of skills and experiences in the law. At the end of the program, a placement in your preferred area of practice may be accommodated based on availability within the firm, following successful completion of your legal qualifications.

During each rotation, you will meet regularly with your assigned supervisor, and you will also have the support of a buddy. At the end of each rotation, you will meet with your supervisor and HR for a formal review, which provides an opportunity to discuss your experiences and progress as you go through the program.

Learning & Development

In addition to your induction program, you will attend a tailored learning program during your graduate year. This has been designed to develop your skills, so you are ready to make the transition from law graduate to lawyer by the end of the program. You will also be able to participate in our Trial by Podcast series.
