Speaking about the new partners, Allens managing partner Richard Spurio said he was “pleased to have such diverse talent with strong international experience” to help grow the firm’s partnership ranks.

“As we look toward the future, it is exciting to have new partners with expertise across important growth sectors such as funds, energy and infrastructure,” he said.

“We’ve also recognised growing client demand for deep regulatory specialists and are delighted that we’re elevating people with strong fintech, regtech and risk management expertise.”

These seven new partners join Sarah Kuman, who was appointed partner in Allen’s Papua New Guinea office at the end of 2017, and Jillian Button and Felicity Rourke, who started with Allens at the beginning of 2018.
