About the organisation:
Hamilton Legal is a unique law firm, entrusted by the Crown to represent the community's interests in the Waikato.
To act for the community is a privilege and one Hamilton Legal does not take lightly.
They take pride in the work they do, ensuring it is undertaken independently, fairly and to the highest standard.

Review and interpret legislation, regulations and legal precedents to assess the strength of cases.
This is more than just ensuring due process - people are at the centre of everything we do.
We uphold ethical and professional standards to the highest level.
About you:

A minimum of four years criminal or civil litigation experience with a current practising certificate.
