We are excit­ed to share that as part of the Mer­i­tas Law Firms World­wide ANZ two-week lawyer exchange, Abby-Rose Hill from DMAW Lawyers in Ade­laide has trav­elled north to join the team at Swaab while Car­lyn Lennan of Swaab has joined DMAW Lawyers for the same period. 

This is an amaz­ing ini­tia­tive, that Mer­i­tas has devel­oped to offer lawyers in its mem­ber firms a taste of work­ing in anoth­er city. The ini­tia­tive helps build rela­tion­ships and also fos­ters an exchange of best prac­tice between firms on every­thing from mat­ter man­age­ment to train­ing. A spe­cial thanks to Sue-Ella Prodonovic for facil­i­tat­ing this fan­tas­tic oppor­tu­ni­ty, and to Mer­i­tas Law Firms World­wide for con­tin­u­ous­ly sup­port­ing pro­fes­sion­al devel­op­ment and cross-bor­der collaboration.
