Allens has today announced the appointment of five new partners, effective 1 July 2024.
'I am pleased to welcome this terrific group of future leaders to the partnership, all of whom are trusted advisors to our clients. Their practices span the areas of energy, ESG, intellectual property, M&A and tax, being areas of importance to our clients and the economy. We congratulate them on reaching this significant milestone,' said Chair Fiona Crosbie.
'We welcome to the partnership a diverse group with deep expertise in their respective areas. This group demonstrates the varied pathways to partnership, whether that is having commenced their career at Allens, joined the firm more recently, or indeed having spent some time with our alliance firm Linklaters,' said Managing Partner Richard Spurio.
