Dispute Resolution: The Bar

Foley's List operates from Owen Dixon Chambers in Melbourne and traces its origins back to 1860, now being co-owned and maintained by over 300 barristers who offer advocacy experience acquired in Australian and numerous foreign jurisdictions. In addition to a broad commercial law practice, including barristers with skills in banking and finance, employment, insolvency and taxation issues, the list is also noted for its concentration of Royal Commission-related expertise. One source noted their quality in employment law, stating: "They are a fantastic set of barristers that specialise in industrial and employment law."Chief clerk Andrew Turner is the key contact.

Frank O'Loughlin KC is exceptionally well-qualified to operate in the taxation law space, having worked within it not only as a solicitor and a barrister, but also as an ATO officer and member of the Administrative Appeals Tribunal.

Peter Fary SC is a well-established and highly-respected barrister in the insolvency sphere, enjoying particular regard for his expertise concerning bankruptcy issues, upon which he is a published authority. "Peter is extremely easy to work with and gives well-considered, thought-out advice."

Andrew De Wijn SC has practised as both solicitor and barrister in the tax law field for over 15 years. Acting for clients in both an advisory and a representational capacity, and in negotiations with the ATO, he is well-versed in both Commonwealth and state tax issues.
