Mills Oakley

Mills Oakley is a proudly national independent Australian law firm.

We are Australia’s 7th largest law firm by size with over 170 partners and over 900 staff. Originating in Melbourne 160 years ago, the firm has transformed since 2008 to become a full-service, multi-award-winning firm operating in every mainland Australian capital city and trusted by many insurers, listed entities, Australia’s largest real estate investment trusts, large private companies and the Australian government to advise on work covering almost every area of legal practice.

Our recent significant growth has been primarily fuelled by the lateral hire of partners from other large national and global law firms, providing us with the experience and under a lower-leveraged team structure, generally leading to a more efficient and cost-effective result for clients.

We have a strong internal culture of collaboration and working together as a team to provide seamless legal services across multiple practice groups for the benefit of our clients.
