KWM has elevated Max Allan (banking and finance, Sydney), Emma Lawrence (dispute resolution, Canberra), Rebekha Pattison (dispute resolution, Canberra) Peter Yeldham (dispute resolution, Sydney) to partner as part of its 2020 round of promotions.
In a statement, the firm said that the promotion of these lawyers to partner is “testament to their technical excellence, their outstanding leadership skills and their commitment to KWM’s clients”.
Chief executive partner Berkeley Cox said he was “thrilled to welcome these outstanding people” to the firm’s partnership ranks.
