A new judge has been appointed to the Queensland Supreme Court, bringing with him over two decades of extensive commercial litigation experience.
Barrister Sean Cooper QC will join the Queensland Supreme Court trial division as of next week and brings with him a broad range of legal experience.
Attorney-General and Minister for Justice Shannon Fentiman said that Mr Cooper would be a “valuable asset” to the bench.
“Mr Cooper’s knowledge and legal expertise has been gained from handling high-profile and often complex matters across various jurisdictions including in the Supreme Court, the Federal Court and the High Court of Australia,” she said.
“I have no doubt his skills and experience will make him a valuable asset to the Supreme Court in helping deliver justice for Queenslanders. Mr Cooper is highly deserving of his new role and will be a great addition to the Supreme Court. I congratulate Mr Cooper on his appointment to the bench.”
