What we are looking for

Maintaining our commitment to achieving consistently outstanding results for clients requires a team of outstanding people, who should possess the following qualities:

Academic Ability

  • Being a specialist firm, Lipman Karas seeks people who are focussed, possess high attention to detail and can demonstrate an ability to apply an exacting approach to any given task. A history of strong academic achievement is therefore essential.

Analytical Skills

  • The nature and complexity of our projects requires the ability to work methodically and meticulously in identifying, analysing and presenting complex factual information and legal concepts in a clear and comprehensive manner.
  • We seek people with advanced analytical abilities who can readily identify the key components of a problem and think outside the square to solve it.

Curiosity and Flexibility

  • Our lawyers are dynamic and thrive on challenges. We look for people with a genuine interest in the law, enjoy thinking strategically and can apply a flexible approach to meet competing demands.
  • We take a 'ground up' approach, which means we focus on detail to first build the foundation on which strong and successful outcomes can be achieved. We seek people who display the same industrious approach that leaves no stone unturned to advance our clients' interests.

Knowledge and Discipline

  • Lipman Karas is retained on large projects that often involve multi-jurisdictional elements. Success in this arena requires combining the enduring strengths of our most experienced senior lawyers with the enthusiasm and resourcefulness of our most junior lawyers. We therefore seek people who are disciplined, eager and committed to acquiring new skills and knowledge.

Team Work and Interpersonal Skills

  • Lipman Karas values people and relationships. Our consistently superior outcomes are made possible by our internal cohesion combined with the strength of the relationships and trust shared with our clients. We seek people who share these values and demonstrate an ability to interact across a broad spectrum of people and situations.
