Legal 500 Editorial commentary

Testimonials

Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.

  • ‘The KWM Dispute Resolution practice has a very strong complement of partners in the Melbourne office (with which I primarily work) who are all very commercial and strategic in how they approach litigation. On large-scale 'bet the company' litigation, including in particular class actions and regulatory matters they are top-notch.’

  • ‘Domenic Gatto is in my view one of the best senior litigation solicitors in Victoria. He is extremely incisive in identifying the critical issues in any proceeding and in putting together and managing the right team to address those issues. I would say his ability to get to the heart of a matter is as good as anyone.'
