Allens elevates 34 to senior positions

Allens has made 34 senior promotions.

The 15 new managing associates and 19 new senior associates come from seven of the firm’s practices. The group covers all of the firm’s Australian and Vietnamese offices.

Richard Spurio, Allens managing partner, congratulated all of the newly promoted lawyers on reaching a significant career milestone.

“Along with being exceptionally talented lawyers, the group brings a diverse range of skills and perspectives to their clients and colleagues. We are also pleased that many of these lawyers have experience working with our alliance partner, Linklaters,” he said. “At Allens, we are immensely proud of the long-term investment in development, flexibility and wellbeing that fosters greatness in our people and allows them to succeed.”
