Minters names 9 new partners
National law firm MinterEllison has appointed nine lawyers across the country to its partnership, with those appointments taking effect as of next month.
MinterEllison has named nine new partners, who work across eight different practice areas, in a promotion round the BigLaw firm said would strengthen its leadership and expertise.
The nine new partners, the firm said in a statement, have a “wealth of experience” and will “further enhance” MinterEllison’s ability to deliver “strategic and innovative solutions” to clients across a diverse range of industries, including energy and resources, financial services, real estate, infrastructure, health, and government.
“The appointments underscore the firm’s dedication to nurturing talent and its commitment to providing clients with exceptional expertise,” the firm said.
The promotions are effective as of 1 July.
The news follows the firm’s appointment of public law partner Sophie Lloyd from BigLaw rival HWL Ebsworth in mid-February.
Speaking about the new partners, MinterEllison chief executive and managing partner Virginia Briggs (pictured) said: “I’m delighted to welcome these talented lawyers to our partnership. Our new partners have outstanding legal minds and a deep understanding of our clients’ needs.”
“They embody adaptability and client-centricity, and I know they will bring new thinking and perspectives to the firm’s leadership, to our clients and the community.”
