National law firm Mills Oakley has elevated 30 practitioners to more senior levels, including naming two new partners in its Perth office.
Workplace relations, employment and safety specialist Daniel White and corporate specialist Andrew Crean have both been promoted to partner, from their existing roles as special counsel, in the firm’s Perth office.
“It has been three years since we launched our Perth WRES practice and Daniel has been instrumental in developing the team into a respected, Legal 500-recommended practice,” he said.
“We have also been very clear in our strategy to use our corporate practice as a source of growth and referral to other parts of the firm and Andrew has been a key part of that story in Perth.”
The firm is “delighted” to see Mr White and Mr Crean rewarded for their hard work, Mr Nerurker said.
