We’re passionate about what we do and want you to be too.

Moray & Agnew is one of Australia’s leading law firms with an unrivalled reputation in our markets. We’re proud that our partners and our legal expertise are consistently recognised by Chambers Asia-Pacific, Legal 500 Asia-Pacific, Best Lawyers, and Doyle’s Guide.

With over 110 partners, our teams are organised into three strategic pillars to play to our strengths:

1. Insurance – including commercial classes such as financial lines, professional indemnity, public & product liability, life insurance, and statutory classes such as workers' compensation and compulsory third party.
2. Commercial & Workplace – spanning corporate and commercial, construction and projects, property and environment, commercial dispute resolution, insolvency, owners’ corporation, and workplace law.
3. Government – spanning local, state, and federal government.

Our clients include Australian and international insurers and reinsurers, corporates of all sizes, and federal, state, and local government.

Nationally, over 750 talented people deliver top-quality legal advice and representation, coupled with exceptional client service and support, across our offices in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Canberra, Newcastle, Perth, and Cairns.

Our partners are committed to fostering flexible, inclusive, and diverse environments for our employees. We have the fourth highest percentage of female partners according to the AFR Law Partnership Survey, July 2024.

We value technical excellence and collegiality, offer a great workplace culture, and excellent opportunities to further your career, whether you are just starting out, an experienced lawyer, or a business services professional.
