Alex Wynn and Liza Friedwald (both pictured) have joined Keypoint in the firm’s private clients team.

Mr Wynn brings more than two decades of experience and a varied legal career, including running teams of litigation staff and management consulting on complex high-value industrial and commercial projects, the firm said in a statement, while Ms Friedwald is a former barrister whose varied practice has seen her represent many clients and appear in a range of courts and tribunals, including local/magistrates, district, supreme and appellate courts as well as family and federal courts.

The news follows the firm’s addition of consulting principals from KHQ Lawyers in September, HWL Ebsworth in August, Case Law in July, and two from Coleman Greig in June.

Speaking about the two appointments, Keypoint chief executive Warren Kalinko said: “Our client offering continues to grow with excellent senior lawyers who have years of experience in their respective fields.

“The pairs’ joining further adds to the quality of our growing Queensland team – now 11 consulting principals – and is an exciting development for our private clients. We are delighted to welcome them to Keypoint.”

Mr Wynn added: “I am delighted to have joined Keypoint Law with its stellar reputation, nationwide presence, international connections and wide service offering and look forward to providing dedicated family law and dispute resolution services to our clients.”

Ms Friedwald noted: “Keypoint’s progressive approach to the practice of law presents opportunities and resources that are not often available in conventional firms.

“I am very excited about joining Keypoint Law and working with my fellow consulting principals.”
