Before joining Hamilton Locke, she was in the taxation team at Clayton Utz as a special counsel and, prior to that, worked in KPMG’s Sydney and Hong Kong offices.
Speaking about the appointment, Hamilton Locke managing partner Nick Humphrey said: “We are delighted to further expand our offering to clients and build on our existing capabilities with the addition of Seema as the first tax partner in Sydney.
“Seema’s niche and extensive skill set is a great asset to our firm and clients.”
