Dispute Resolution - Australia
What the Team is Known For
Arnold Bloch Leibler offers a highly regarded, independent practice, long renowned for its representation of high net worth and other prominent individuals and increasingly seen acting for leading corporates, handling matters including high-profile regulatory investigations and prosecutions, and it attracts specific praise for its familiarity with Royal Commission processes. The team is active for both defendants and plaintiffs in class actions and valued by clients for its combination of a boutique-style approach to service with a readiness to engage with large and complex issues, notably including those involving high levels of reputational risk. It is particularly admired for its handling of insolvency-related matters, robust advocacy on behalf of clients and employment of small, carefully selected teams to manage mandates with maximum efficiency.
