Winners of the 30 Under 30 announced
Some of Australia's brightest rising stars have been recognised at the annual Lawyers Weekly 30 Under 30 awards.
The awards celebrate lawyers under 30 achieving outstanding results across 10 practice areas.
A stand-out even among other high performers, Harmers Workplace Lawyers solicitor Amy Zhang was named in two categories: dispute resolution and workplace relations, employment and safety.
Winners were announced at a cocktail function at the Ivy Ballroom last Friday, hosted by comedian Tommy Little.
Lawyers Weekly congratulates all the winners.
