Kennedys is pleased to have maintained our position as a market leading insurance law firm in Australia and Singapore in the latest The Legal 500 rankings, with our shipping and employment teams also recognised in the region.
For Insurance, we maintained our Tier 1 position in Australia and Singapore (Foreign Firms), with strong client feedback including: “The team has a great relationship with clients and always will go the extra mile to fight our corner.” We also gained seven individual lawyer listings for insurance, including Nicole Wearne for ‘Hall of Fame’ in Australia.
