“Sarah has an unusually diverse background and her experience, coupled with her industry and government exposure, gives Sarah a unique insight into clients’ regulatory challenges as well as the growing role of government,” Lander & Rogers’ commercial disputes practice group leader Greg McKenzie said. 

“She will be a great asset for both our firm and our growing number of clients in regulatory and public sectors.”

Lander & Rogers CEO partner Genevieve Collins echoed a similar sentiment, noting the appointment of Ms Fregon also strengthens the firm’s position as an industry leader in gender diversity, with Lander & Rogers having the highest female partner ratio of any Australian law firm of its size, at 43 per cent.

“Sarah is a natural fit for Lander & Rogers; sharing our commitment to improving the client experience through technology and innovation. We’re delighted to welcome her to the firm,” Ms Collins added.

Commenting on her new role, Ms Fregon said: “Compliance is cited by clients as one of the biggest challenges facing their organisations right now. With the regulatory environment evolving at an increasingly rapid rate, industry and government clients are seeking support to cut through the complexity and ensure they comply with their obligations and meet community expectations”.
