Piper Alderman is delighted to announce 26 promotions across the firm with effect from 1 July 2023, including 2 partners, 11 senior associates, 11 associates and 2 in business services.

Our newly appointed partners include Sydney-based, Caterina Meduri (Dispute Resolution & Litigation) and Melbourne-based, Craig Subocz (Intellectual Property & Technology).

Joining Piper Alderman’s Intellectual Property & Technology team in late 2019, Craig Subocz specialises in information and communication technology procurement, data privacy and information security matters. Craig was recently named in The Best Lawyers® in Australia ‘Ones to Watch’ list for both Intellectual Property Law and Information Technology Law.  He is also a recommended lawyer for Data Protection in the 2023 edition of The Legal 500 Asia-Pacific.

Managing Partner, Tony Britten-Jones commented:

“Piper Alderman is continuously looking for opportunities to develop and promote our internal talent. Our partner appointments and promotions reflect the firm’s growth strategy and a healthy balance between external lateral recruitment and the ‘home grown’ development of our entry level lawyers through our clerk and graduate programs. With diverse talent and a commitment to collaboration, the firm will continue to provide growth and career development pathways as we provide a platform for our people to flourish.”

“We would like to congratulate everyone on their recent promotions and thank them for their ongoing and significant contributions to the firm.”
