Alan Colman (pictured) will join Corrs Chambers Westgarth’s Melbourne office as a consultant.

Mr Colman most recently worked in London as the EBRD’s acting chief counsel.

He has also previously held legal roles at the UN in Geneva and spent 13 years at another large Australian firm.

Mr Colman specialises in workplace relations and dispute resolutions and has worked across a range of sectors, including aviation, banking, manufacturing, mining, telecommunications and stevedoring.

Last month, Corrs Chambers Westgarth also gained litigation special counsel Michelle Dean from King & Wood Mallesons.

The firm has also suffered losses recently, including energy partner James Minchinton in October and corporate partner David Hallam in August.
