Following an impressive year of growth, during which it also sold a minority stake to a private equity firm, international firm Wotton + Kearney has finished the year by promoting 29 lawyers to more senior positions.
Wotton + Kearney has elevated 29 lawyers, including one to partner in the firm’s “rapidly growing” cyber team, as well as four to special counsel, 12 to senior associate and 12 to associate.
The addition of Nicole Gabryk to the partnership means the firm now has 67 partners across its nine offices in Australia and New Zealand.
Speaking about Ms Gabryk’s elevation, Wotton + Kearney chief executive partner David Kearney (pictured) said: “I am delighted to welcome Nicole as a partner and to see our market-leading cyber offering continue to grow.
“I congratulate all of our lawyers on their promotions, which reflect and recognise their talents, contribution and continued commitment to our clients.”
The firm’s newest special counsel are Aaron Bolton, Emily Jones, Joseph Vermiglio and Rosalind Ta’eed.
Its new senior associates are Alexander Bentley, Arriane Garcia, Caitlin Paxton, Joshua Black, Larissa Sutter, Laura O’Toole, Michael Hobson, Rosie Kapur, Sam Akon, Stephen McLoughlin, Thomas Cunningham and Thomas Ellison.
