Clyde & Co.

A recent High Court decision that dealt a blow to builders and developers in NSW will usher in a return to a pre-2002 litigation regime, when plaintiffs only sued the parties with the deepest pockets, an expert has told Lawyerly. 

Some of Australia's biggest law firms were dragged to court in 2024, facing lawsuits -- and even class actions -- by disgruntled clients and aggrieved employees.

The owners of the Werribee shopping centre in Victoria have lost their bid for preliminary discovery related to the likely recovery in their $356 million claim against builder Probuild. 

An investor class action against failed advisory firm Linchpin Capital and its former directors has won its bid to claim its losses against a $10 million insurance policy from AIG.

Wotton Kearney has welcomed a Clyde & Co partner and his team of six to bolster its Sydney-based insurance practice.

The co-owners of Pacific Werribee shopping centre in Victoria have won their bid for a preliminary trial in a suit against Probuild Constructions and several engineering companies over $200 million in alleged structural defects.

Clyde & Co has been hit with a lawsuit by insurers who say they were wrongly advised to indemnify a builder in a legal dispute. 

A team from Clyde & Co has made the jump to Colin Biggers & Paisley, following seasoned insurance partner Patrick Boardman. 

Linchpin Capital liquidators have resolved their case against Grant Thornton and Moore Stephens, a year after a court found the evidence on its face established a claim against the auditors.
