Paralegal (Part-Time)

At Withstand Lawyers, we keep it simple. No outdated processes. No unnecessary complexity. Just real legal work in a fully digital, paperless firm.

We're hiring paralegals across multiple teams:

• Motor Vehicle Accident (MVA)
• Workers Compensation (WC) and Work Injury Damages (WID)
• Public Liability (PL)
• Total and Permanent Disability (TPD)

You'll work shoulder-to-shoulder with our lawyers, helping injured clients get the support they need. Along the way, you'll sharpen your drafting, build sound legal judgment, and learn what a successful team in a law firm looks like.

What you'll do

• Draft documents - letters, statements, submissions, claim forms.
• Communicate with clients, insurers, barristers, and super funds to keep matters moving.
• Develop judgment on claim viability and case strategy.
• Receive direct, specific constructive feedback to lift your work.

Who you are

• A paralegal or junior legal professional looking to build real skills. Prior experience not required.
• A strong writer - can summarise dense material into clear, plain English and draft letters, file notes, and submissions that don't need heavy editing.
• A clear, concise communicator in writing and on the phone.
• Organised, detail-focused, keeps matters on track.
• Tech-savvy and comfortable in a fully digital firm.

How we work - our STAND values

• S – Straight Up. We say the hard thing honestly, clearly, and respectfully. Clear and simple over clever and complicated. Bad news shared early beats bad news found late.
• T – Trust. We earn and protect our client's trust in us, and extend trust to our team. Act decisively and swiftly when broken.
• A – Accountability. We take ownership of all our actions, learn from our mistakes and move forward.
• N – No Ego. We pursue the best outcomes based on facts, not opinion. The best idea wins on merit, not by being the loudest.
• D – Deliver. We move every matter and goal forward with intent, owning the next step and lifting each other as we go. Outcomes over activity, together.

Why Withstand

• Hybrid flexibility (3 days WFH per week).
• Hands-on personal injury experience
• Direct mentoring from lawyers who teach.
• A workplace with personality - basketball, putt-putt, and table tennis in the building.
• A genuine launchpad for ambitious legal careers.
• Meaningful work helping people when they need it most.
