Maddocks Employment and Disputes practice group head Lindy Richardson said Meaghan’s appointment further bolstered the firm’s Employment, Safety & People team.
‘As we emerge from COVID-19 we are seeing a growing demand for employment law advice that is linked to more dispersed and flexible workforces,’ Lindy said.
‘Meaghan’s experience in industrial relations and restructures will be vital for our clients as they grapple with the impact these changes will have on their business.’
Maddocks Chair Mark Henry welcomed Meaghan to the firm.
‘We are excited to welcome Meaghan to Maddocks as we continue to add talented people to areas of highest client demand,’ Mark said.
‘Meaghan is the fourth new partner to join Maddocks over the past six months, with Ilan Kraus joining our Banking & Finance team in Melbourne, Cameron Thompson joining our Property team in Sydney and Rosalie Byrne joining our Dispute Resolution and Litigation team in Canberra over that period.’
