We offer support for working parents and those with caring responsibilities. Working parents have access to a modern parental leave policy that encourages co-parenting and features 26 weeks paid leave, superannuation on unpaid parental leave and a temporary break from billable expectations for lawyers returning from more than three months parental leave. Our parents can also access transition coaching, priority placement for onsite childcare and on demand 'emergency' childcare.

We also provide support for those with other caring responsibilities and offer generous leave provisions.

We're committed to pro bono, charity and community activities. You'll be encouraged to take part in our programs.
