HWL Ebsworth Graduate Programs & Clerkships

HWL Ebsworth is an integrated, full service commercial law firm, providing market leading legal services at competitive rates. We operate offices in every state and territory across Australia. Our firm delivers unrivalled value for money as a result of running its business in the same way that its clients do. We allow all team members to reach their potential by rewarding and promoting talent solely on the basis of merit. We are not a firm that is distracted by overseas ambitions.

Our rapid rise to become the largest legal partnership in Australia* shows that in our case, the differences between us and other law firms are real. Let us demonstrate how you can benefit from those differences.

Our differentiators include the following factors.

• A lower ratio of solicitors to partners than any other major Australian law firm ensures that our team members interact with clients much earlier in their legal careers. Our solicitors also benefit from having greater access to partners, which accelerates their professional development.
• Our transparent career development framework ensures that all team members are aware of the firm’s expectations at each level, and what is required to advance to the next career stage.
• We pride ourselves on promoting and rewarding talent based solely on merit, which allows all team members to reach their potential.

We are proud to offer our staff unrivalled career development opportunities and provide them with a chance to work with Australia's most highly regarded commercial organisations, as well as Commonwealth Government and State Government Departments and Agencies.

We are committed to providing an environment that supports and encourages all team members to progress. We are not your typical law firm.
