We are delighted to introduce Arran Hunt as the new Partner heading our Immigration practice at McVeagh Fleming. Arran Hunt is a highly experienced Immigration Lawyer with a stellar reputation in the market. He is widely recognised for his expertise in demystifying the immigration process and providing valuable advice and guidance on navigating the complexities of the immigration system.

Alissa Bell becomes the new Chair of McVeagh Fleming, as John Woolley steps down after nearly five decades. Bell aims to build on the firm's growth and foster inclusivity while maintaining a strong emphasis on client relationships. Committed to providing high-quality legal services for all, the firm actively supports pro bono work and legal aid services. Bell's passion for empowering women and driving positive change is evident through her volunteer work. With a focus on talent nurturing and progressive legal services, McVeagh Fleming looks forward to an exciting new chapter under Bell's leadership.

Our former partner and consultant, Geoff Baxter, is retiring from McVeagh Fleming on 31 March 2023 after an impressive 46-year career with the firm. Looking back on Geoff's career, he started at McVeagh Fleming fresh as a law graduate in 1977 and became a partner in a very short period of time. In 2014, he transitioned into a consultant role, where he has continued to provide invaluable legal counsel to a wide range of clients in the areas of trust law, corporate and commercial law, and more.
