William James is founded on the vision that there is a better way to do law. Provide great clients with access to talented, passionate and, most importantly, happy people and then sit back and watch magic happen. Clients constantly tell us we aren't like other law firms and we love that!
We don't do everything – We are Specialists!
We only operate in those areas where we can deliver market leading performance - commercial litigation, insolvency and restructuring. As a result, we say no to lots of work.
Our lawyers are top class lawyers from the big end of town. Both the Partners and the firm have been recognised for numerous awards as leading lawyers in the field of litigation, restructuring and insolvency both in Australia and in the Asia Pacific.
We believe in high performance – Bring your "A" Game
We strive to be the firm of choice for high performing and passionate lawyers. That doesn't mean crazy hours. Just creative solutions and quality work delivered with a caring touch to our clients. We want lawyers who don't know how to operate any other way. With a firm full of amazing lawyers, the awesome clients follow.
We believe in growing & keeping our lawyers - We love it when our staff are happy
A big part of work is great relationships with interesting and engaging people. Our lawyers pride themselves on sharing the same vision for the firm. We only hire people who get this. They are passionate in their approach and committed to building a great firm culture. They take what they do very seriously but don't take themselves that seriously - there is no point if you can't have a laugh and some fun along the way.
Who are we looking for at the moment?
We are always keen to chat to anyone that associates with the above and if it doesn't resonate, we are not the firm for you.
Right now, we are looking for a law graduate in the commercial litigation space.
We are looking for someone who will graduate from their law degree at the end of 2024 and due to be admitted in the new year, who we can invest in and mentor to become an excellent lawyer, someone who wants to develop a career as part of our team.
You also need to be really smart (in a normal, humble, not full of yourself sort of way) and very good at what you do – we will probably make you prove it somehow.
We want someone high energy and who will be a positive contributor to a great firm culture that we are proud of.
