If you answer ‘No’ to any of these questions then it might be time to join Portia:
I’m treated with respect by everyone at work (Yes / No) The firm I work for has values that align with my own (Yes / No) Everyone I work with aspires to be the best they can be (Yes / No) I’m not expected to work more hours than I get paid for (Yes / No) I have kept true to my reasons for wanting to be a lawyer (Yes / No)
We’re always on the lookout for lawyers who are sound, loyal, have a tonne of integrity and are real ‘law nerds’.
Our culture is relaxed and staff-centric. We’ve spent ten years building a team of highly profession family law experts, social justice warriors and excellent litigators.
There’s no hierarchy, no boozy lunches or compulsory after-work drinks.
Most importantly, there’s work (for 37.5 hours per week) and then life (the rest of the time). We don’t intrude into our employee’s time outside of work hours.
Our strategy moving forward is to gather together the leading family and civil litigators in Aotearoa New Zealand, to break the paternalistic paradigm and focus on providing female and non-cisgender clients (in particular) with excellent access to justice.
We each work alongside professionals who see law as a calling, not just a career. They are devoted to learning and growing and thrive in a collegial environment.
If this sounds like your sort of place to grow as a lawyer, use the link to email Erin Ebborn, our Director and Principal lawyer.
