Paul Kallenbach spearheads the MinterEllison cybersecurity offering from the Melbourne office, advising on issues in that sphere and on a wide range of often complex technology procurement and implementation projects.

Paul is by far the most skilled and pragmatic legal counsel I've worked with.

Paul Kallenbach is highly responsive, pragmatic and capable of complex, high quality drafting.

His insight, experience and thoughts guided us carefully. He's co-operative and doesn't act without having our preference in mind. He's also intelligent and proactive.

Dean Levitan has risen to prominence for his role in proceedings brought by decorated war veteran Ben Roberts-Smith in Australia's so-called "defamation trial of the century".

Dean is excellent. He's detail-focused, responsive, smart and a pleasure to deal with. He's someone whose advice I believe I could trust implicitly.

Dean's my favourite, he's just really fun. He's good at explaining exactly why the legal advice is used and is good enough that he's doing himself out of work.

Dean Levitan is described as a star of the future, but I think he is already a star in media law.
