The agreement sees Carroll & O’Dea Lawyers coming on board as an all-of-club partner with rights across both the Parramatta Eels NRL and NRLW teams, including apparel integration with the Parramatta Eels NRL team — which managing partner Hanaan Indari said was part of the firm’s ongoing commitment to the Western Sydney community.
“The firm has had a longstanding presence in the Parramatta CBD for more than 20 years, supporting clients locally and helping them achieve the results they deserve across personal injury and compensation, estate planning and disputes, property transactions, business law and much more.”
Parramatta Eels chief commercial officer Andrew Mikhail said the sponsorship would be a valuable asset to the teams.
“2022 has been a great year for the Parramatta Eels, both on-field and off-field, and it’s tremendous to commence this partnership with Carroll & O’Dea Lawyers. This is a valued partnership because both the Parramatta Eels and Carroll & O’Dea are driven by a shared commitment to Western Sydney,” he said.
“Carroll & O’Dea’s support of both our men’s and women’s programs further show their belief in what we’re building here at the Parramatta Eels, and we’re excited to have them with us for the seasons ahead.”
Scott Dougall, partner at Carroll & O’Dea Lawyers’ Parramatta office, highlighted the importance of the firm’s growing presence in Western Sydney and commitment to the community and the local area.
“Our sponsorship of the Eels comes at an exciting time for the firm as we relocate to brand new offices in the heart of the Parramatta CBD, enabling us to continue delivering high-quality legal services to our clients in a ‘down-to-earth’ way,” he said.
“This is a great opportunity for our firm to support the Eels as they continue to build for the future and bring our local communities together. That includes supporting local people, charities and community groups, being role models for the next generation and achieving great results on and off the playing field.
“We are really looking forward to working with the Eels from 2023 and engaging with the club’s members and fans so that we can add value and support this fantastic club and the Parramatta community over the coming years.”
