Meanwhile, workplace law boutique Kingston Reid brought in seasoned veteran Brendan Milne as its 12th partner.

Milne has worked with major organisations in several contentious and non-contentious workplace relations matters. He is an expert in industrial disputes and enterprise bargaining, having played a role in a number of notable disputes in the stevedoring, mining, and construction sectors over the past 10 years.

In particular, his experience with clients regarding complex industrial relations matters, including enterprise bargaining and other industrial disputes, as well as advising them on all aspects of the employment relationship, will make him an invaluable resource for our clients,” managing partner Alice DeBoos said.

Milne will operate from Melbourne.
