In an effort to strengthen ties between the US and Australian legal professions, expat Australian lawyers in New York recently gathered at the Harvard Club as part of the Law Council of Australia’s “New York Chapter”.

The New York Chapter forms part of the LCA’s International Law Section and was established to facilitate contact between Australian lawyers working abroad and to keep up-to-date with developments in the legal profession.
Chair of the New York Chapter Dr Gordon Hughes said it was encouraging to witness the development of the New York Chapter.
“The development of international chapters strengthens the Law Council’s capacity to foster good will and develop professional relationships in key jurisdictions like New York,” said Hughes.
“Today’s meeting was a positive step forward in the ongoing development of our New York Chapter and I would encourage any expat Australian lawyer practising in New York to consider becoming involved.”
The LCA’s International Law Section currently has Chapters in China (Hong Kong), Indonesia, the United Kingdom, the United States, South Korea and Thailand.
