Careers at Withstand Lawyers
We don’t hire lawyers. We hire fighters.
Withstand Lawyers was built for people who were told they couldn’t win. If that sounds like the kind of work that gets you out of bed in the morning, keep reading.
Why Withstand
Most law firms talk about culture. We just built one. No corner offices. No billable hour targets. No egos. Just a team of people who give a damn about getting injured workers and accident victims the money they’re owed.
- → No Win No Fee model — every case matters because our pay depends on winning
- → Work from home 3 days a week for full-timers — we trust you to get the job done
- → Real mentorship from day one — juniors work directly with senior lawyers, not in a silo
- → We specialise — personal injury only. You become an expert, not a generalist
- → Offices in Sydney, Parramatta and Perth — flexibility on where you work
- → A team that actually likes each other (see videos below)
OUR VALUES
The 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 clients’ trust in us, and extend trust to our team. We act decisively and swiftly when it’s broken.
A — Accountability
We take responsibility for 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, taking the next step and lifting each other as we go. Outcomes over activity, together.
What to Expect
Your Own Files
You run your cases. Not shadow someone else’s. Real responsibility from day one with senior support when you need it.
Hybrid Working
3 days WFH, 2 days in office for full-timers. We care about output, not where your desk is.
Direct Client Contact
You talk to your clients. You build the relationship. You see the impact of your work firsthand.
No Billable Targets
We don’t count hours. We count outcomes. If your clients are getting results, you’re doing your job.
Competitive Pay
Salary plus performance incentives. Your results directly impact your earnings.
Small Firm, Big Cases
We punch above our weight. $47M+ recovered. You get the cases and mentorship of a big firm without the bureaucracy.

Who We’re Looking For
We don’t care where you went to uni. We care about three things:
- 1. You actually want to help people — not just practise law
- 2. You can communicate in plain English — no legal jargon, no hiding behind complexity
- 3. You take ownership — of your files, your clients, your results
We’re always open to hearing from solicitors, law graduates, paralegals, and support staff who want to be part of something different.
