Hello, Ahmed.
If you want to practice in Australia, you would need to study in Australia a first law degree, their 3-yr JD.
An LLB in UK, does not entitle you to practice in Australia.
However, it does entitle you to take the bar exam or articles of clerk in the UK.
I would suggest you try to get in a UK firm with offices in Australia, so that you may be able to apply for transfer, later on, with a secured job.
This way, you would not have to live off your savings/loans for 3 more years of unemployment or underemployment.
Good luck!
