Legal Assistant – Personal Injuries

Job Description

Legal Assistant | Plaintiff Personal Injury | Brisbane

Join a specialist plaintiff law firm where you’ll be trusted, valued and genuinely involved in helping clients through some of the most important moments of their lives.

This is an opportunity to join a well-established boutique Brisbane law firm with a strong reputation in personal injury and compensation law. Known for its client-first approach and commitment to achieving exceptional outcomes, the firm has built a loyal referral network and a reputation for providing compassionate, expert representation to individuals across Queensland.

Due to continued growth, the team is seeking an experienced Legal Assistant to support senior lawyers across a range of plaintiff litigation matters.

The Opportunity:
This is a hands-on role where you will become an integral part of the legal team, assisting on matters from commencement through to resolution.

Unlike many larger firms, support ratios are kept manageable, with Legal Assistants supporting no more than two solicitors. This allows you to develop a genuine understanding of your files, build strong working relationships and take real ownership of your work.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Managing files from initial intake through to resolution
• Preparing legal correspondence and court documents
• Liaising with clients, barristers, medical providers and expert witnesses
• Coordinating appointments, court dates and critical deadlines
• Assisting with briefs to counsel and settlement preparation
• Maintaining electronic files and document management systems
• Providing general litigation and administrative support

About You:
You are an experienced Legal Assistant who enjoys working in a fast-paced environment and takes pride in delivering a high standard of support.

Ideally, you will bring:

• Previous experience as a Legal Assistant
• Personal Injury or Litigation experience (highly regarded)
• Strong organisational and file management skills
• Excellent attention to detail
• Confident and professional communication skills
• The ability to manage competing priorities and deadlines
• A proactive, reliable and team-focused approach

What’s on Offer?

• Join a respected boutique plaintiff law firm with an outstanding reputation
• Meaningful work that genuinely makes a difference to clients’ lives
• Supportive and approachable lawyers who value their support staff
• Manageable support ratios with no more than two solicitors per assistant
• Genuine variety across interesting and complex matters
• Onsite parking available
• Friendly, collaborative and down-to-earth team environment
• Long-term career stability within a growing practice

If you’re looking for a role where you can become a valued member of a close-knit team and enjoy genuine involvement in your matters, we’d love to hear from you.
