Why royal commission work is so stimulating
Alexandra Tighe has worked on four royal commissions during her career, two of which saw her act as lead partner. Here, she discusses what such litigation work is like.
On this episode of The Lawyers Weekly Show, host Jerome Doraisamy is joined by Holding Redlich partner Alexandra Tighe, who won the Partner of the Year (BigLaw) category at the 2020 Women in Law Awards, to discuss the fast-paced nature of litigating a state or federal royal commission, the added pressure that comes with one's work being on the front pages of newspapers, and some of the “organic” professional skills that one gleans in the course of such work.
