Jones Day adds major projects and construction partner

In Australia and across African and Asian countries, Jones Day’s newest partner has a particular focus on major engineering, infrastructure, resource, energy and energy transition projects.

With credentials in Australia in both domestic and international arbitration, Luck has acted in matters governed by various arbitration rules, including UNCITRAL, LCIA, ICC, ACICA, AFSA, HKIAC, and SIAC.

Leader of the firm’s global disputes practice, Sion Richards, said Luck is a “world-class disputes lawyer” whose breadth of experience has made him an “exceptional addition to our growing team”.

“His ability to navigate complex cross-border disputes in the resources, energy and infrastructure sectors and his geographic focus on Africa align perfectly with our commitment to serve our clients’ international needs in these vital sectors, and we are thrilled to welcome him to the firm,” Richards said.

Adam Salter, partner-in-charge of Jones Day’s Perth office, said the team was excited about the addition of Luck.

“His deep roots in Western Australia, combined with his extensive experience advising clients across Africa and the Asia-Pacific region, will strengthen our ability to serve clients not only locally but throughout Australia and around the world,” Salter said.
