The firm said Mr Efstathis was an active and talented member of Brisbane’s intellectual property community and a rising star in this area of law, with considerable experience working with respected barristers and state and Federal Court judges.

Mr Efstathis had a background in applied science, majoring in biotechnology, allowing him to “fully understand clients’ needs and provide tailored advice”. He was building a “solid reputation” in copyright law, trade mark strategy and infringement matters.

EAGLEGATE said he was also an avid photographer and football fanatic. The practice principal, Nichole Murdoch, said he made a “very positive contribution to the practice of law in Queensland and would be mourned by the profession”.
