The firm, which boasts over 850 staff and more than 100 partners, is broadening its national capability with the opening of an office in Adelaide.

Hall & Wilcox managing partner Tony Macvean (pictured) said that the expansion and new office has been driven by client demand and will allow it to better support flexible working practices.

“Over the past couple of years, we have been building a practice in South Australia, and our client base in Adelaide is growing. We are opening the office to provide support to our South Australian clients as well as national clients with interests and operations in Adelaide,” he proclaimed.

“More often we are recruiting roles that can be based anywhere in Australia. Adding an Adelaide office allows us to appeal to great people wanting to remain based in South Australia while working in a national team and practice.

“Our people are able to work flexibly, as well as be part of a community by coming in to a physical office and collaborating with clients and peers. I am looking forward to seeing more of our clients and our people in our Adelaide office.” 

The new office is the firm’s eighth around Australia. It already has presence in Melbourne, Sydney, Newcastle, Canberra, Perth, Brisbane and Darwin.

The Adelaide arm of the firm will be led by special counsel Nick Ramsey, who will be joined by a small team of insurance and commercial lawyers.
