Relocation marks independent firm's growing presence in Northern Territory
Hall & Wilcox, independent firm, has announced its relocation to a new office almost double the size of its previous space in Darwin, Northern Territory, effective 30 September.
This new office, located within Darwin’s central business district, has the following address: Ground Floor, 26 Harry Chan Avenue, Darwin, NT 0800.
“We’re excited about the move, which not only reaffirms our long-term commitment to the Northern Territory but also reinforces our national presence, enabling us to create value for our clients and support them more effectively both locally and across Australia,” said Graydon Dowd, chief executive partner, in the firm’s news release.
The modern workspace is designed to support the firm’s service to its clients, the wellbeing of its people, and its goals of prioritising sustainability and minimising its environmental footprint, with only minor modifications introduced to the existing fit-out, said the news release of Hall & Wilcox.
“Our new space embodies our dedication to innovation and teamwork,” said Dowd in the news release. “It provides a dynamic environment that enhances collaboration and supports our team’s wellbeing, ensuring we have the resources needed to create value for our clients.”
With the new office, Hall & Wilcox hopes to boost its efforts to provide legal services nationally, to foster client relationships, to deliver tailored solutions adapting to evolving needs, and to meaningfully impact the broader Darwin community through initiatives, partnerships, and pro bono work, the news release said.
“Our goal is to be an integral part of the Darwin community, building meaningful connections and making a positive difference in both business and beyond,” said Dowd in the news release.
