Australian law firms continue to demonstrate their innovation and technical skill in both the largest and the smallest transactional and litigious matters.

This week, in Lawyers Weekly’s Deals and Litigation pages, we feature Addisons Lawyers’ work on the listing of the Cheviot Kirribilly Vineyard — the first publicly listed group to own and operate vineyards in Australia.
