  • KWM: Workplace of tomorrow KWM: Workplace of tomorrow

    Take a look at the future. It’s custom designed. It’s egalitarian. Oh, and you get to sit in your own ‘open pod’. It’s King & Wood Mallesons’ new Perth office at QV.1 Tower. Equipped with things you’ve always wanted (abundant wireless tech, for example) and things you never knew existed (‘media scraper’ units) the firm hopes the office will boost collaboration and break down traditional models of working.

  • G+T named best in professional services G+T named best in professional services

    Gilbert + Tobin is one well-rounded law firm. At BRW's recent Client Choice Awards, the firm was named the nation's best law firm (in the revenue category between $50m and less than $200m), Australia's best provider to the professional services sector, and Australia's most innovative law firm. No small feat. Not only that, the firm also took home awards for being the 'most caring' and 'most friendly' firm in Australia. Australasian Lawyer is not entirely sure how the latter honours were quantified, but we are sure it is deserved.
