🌿 Senior Family Lawyer

Join a Family Law Firm That Does Things Differently

Coolangatta + WFH | $150,000+ | No Billable Hours

At Tiernan Family Law, we’re not your traditional law firm — and we don’t want to be. We’re a team of approachable, down-to-earth family lawyers who believe that resolving disputes amicably isn’t just better for clients — it’s better for lawyers too.

We’re growing, and we’re on the lookout for a Senior Family Lawyer who shares our values, loves what they do, and is ready to work in a firm where your worth isn’t measured in six-minute units.

What makes us different?

- No billable hours. Ever.

We operate on a fixed-fee model, so you’re free to focus on the quality of your work — not the time it takes.

- Work from our Coolangatta office (just steps from the beach), or from home.

We value flexibility and trust you to work where you work best.

- We put people first.

Our clients come to us for clarity, compassion, and calm — and our team culture reflects the same. No egos, no burnout, just good people doing meaningful work.

- Room to grow.

We’re not a “set and forget” firm — we support your professional goals and are excited to help you level up, whether that’s in leadership, mediation, or beyond.

- Supportive team.

You’ll be surrounded by people who’ve got your back, who love to collaborate, and who genuinely enjoy coming to work each day (whether it’s on Zoom or at our sunny office).

About You

✔️ At least 5+ years of post-admission experience in family law

✔️ Confident managing your own matters, but collaborative in nature

✔️ Solutions-focused, empathetic, and calm under pressure

✔️ Accredited Specialist, FDRP, or Mediator qualifications are a big plus (but not essential)

What You’ll Get

💰 Salary of $150,000+ (negotiable depending on experience)

📅 Full-time role with flexibility built in

🌟 A chance to make a real difference in the lives of families — without the pressure of billables

💬 A voice in shaping how we grow as a firm
