Optio6 Talent Partners has partnered exclusively with a well-established Brisbane law firm to appoint an experienced Senior Litigation Solicitor.
This opportunity is ideal for a Queensland-based litigator who enjoys running matters autonomously, appearing in Court, and working closely with clients across a broad range of disputes that genuinely matter to people and businesses alike.
This is not a narrow specialist commercial litigation role. Instead, you'll join a collaborative and respected private practice handling a diverse litigation caseload across a broad-spectrum practice environment.
About the Role
You will manage your own file load with a high degree of autonomy from day one, including:
- Conducting litigation matters from commencement through to resolution
- Appearing in Queensland Courts, with and without Counsel
- Advising clients strategically and practically throughout disputes
- Drafting pleadings, affidavits, submissions and correspondence
- Managing negotiations and settlement discussions
- Mentoring junior lawyers and contributing to team development
- Collaborating across the firm's broader practice areas
The successful candidate will bring strong working knowledge of Queensland court processes, practice directions and litigation strategy.
About You We're looking for someone who:
- Has a minimum 5+ years PAE in Queensland (would consider less PAE based on experience)
- Holds an unrestricted Queensland practising certificate
- Can confidently manage litigation matters autonomously
- Has experience appearing in QLD Courts
- Enjoys a varied litigation practice rather than highly specialised commercial litigation only
- Communicates confidently with clients and colleagues alike
- Values collaboration, professionalism and practical client outcomes
Experience across commercial disputes, property disputes, estate litigation, insolvency, neighbour disputes or general civil litigation will all be highly regarded.
Why This Opportunity? - True flexible working arrangements (WFH days up to 2-3)
- Work across either the Mt Gravatt or Stafford office
- Supportive and collaborative team culture
- Genuine autonomy without micromanagement
- Diverse and interesting litigation matters
- Long-term career growth opportunities
- Established and highly regarded Brisbane practice
This is an excellent opportunity for a Queensland litigator looking for long-term stability, autonomy, and meaningful client work within a supportive firm environment.
