Partner of the Year finalists for 2021 revealed

Lawyers Weekly and principal partner Commonwealth Bank of Australia are delighted to announce the finalists for this year’s Partner of the Year Awards.

This year, the awards will be like no other, highlighting and shining a spotlight on our top partners who lead the way in the business of law during a time of unprecedented change.

The sixth annual Partner of the Year Awards is fast approaching! This year’s event will see the return of a full-capacity black-tie event, to be held on Thursday, 22 July at The Star in Sydney.

The annual event presents an invaluable opportunity to highlight the notable achievements of lawyers at the height of their career who demonstrate leadership, technical expertise, mentorship and business development skills. The awards program bestows some of the industry’s most respected and sought-after accolades showcasing outstanding performance by partners, or partners equivalent, across individual practice areas within the Australian legal profession.

“The age of coronavirus gave rise to extraordinary burdens for senior lawyers to not only keep their practices above water but also manage new environmental conditions for their respective teams. All such leaders in the profession deserve our respect and admiration for navigating through such choppy waters,” he said.

“We congratulate all the finalists on their remarkable efforts over the past 12 months, and wish them the very best of luck for this year’s awards.”
