The article Mid-tier lawyers join
the A-team (p 33) refers to a survey of leading general
counsel, which identified 109 lawyers who were nominated by their
clients as Australia's best.
Cornwall Stodart was acknowledged as
walking among the giants of the legal industry, having
four of the nation's top lawyers - John Hutchings, Louise Houlihan, Levent Shevki and Nicole
Stevens-Warton. The results come from a survey conducted for
the Australian Corporate Lawyers Association and the Corporate
Lawyers Association of New Zealand, which asked 160 general counsel
to nominate those lawyers who would be part of their 'ideal
firm'.
With four lawyers ranked in the
nation's top 109, Cornwall Stodart is placed ahead of some
top-tier and/or international firms, such as Corrs Chambers
Westgarth, DLA Phillips Fox and Baker & McKenzie.
In the article Level playing field
as smaller firms push into top rankings, Ron Pol says
that per-lawyer calculations of the survey results indicate that
some mid-tier firms are at least as highly regarded as some of the
mega-firms. He included Cornwall Stodart in this list of
mid-tier firms.
Congratulations to all of our staff,
who make Cornwall Stodart a top-quality firm. Special
congratulations to John, Louise, Lev and Nicole, who each
thoroughly deserve this wonderful achievement.
