NEW ADDITION TO THE PARTNERSHIP

 
A long history of excellence continues at Marriott Oliver with the promotion of Anne Brown to partner.
A graduate of the University of Wollongong, Anne has been astutely advising Marriott Oliver clients for four years after a successful beginning in Sydney.  Working primarily in Property, Business law, Elder Law and Succession Law, Anne works closely with businesses and individual clients to produce solid legal results which support their wider goals.
She has impressed clients with her fresh approach and creative thinking to quickly and cost-effectively resolve complex issues.
“Clients have always complimented us on our ability to focus on their needs and communicate effectively with them” said Leonie Sinclair, the firm’s longest serving partner. “Anne has a great ability to convey complex information in clear and simple English.  She is a real people person.  I am delighted to have Anne as my partner.”
With Anne’s addition, Marriott Oliver is now the largest local law firm.  With a hundred year history serving the local community, Marriott Oliver offers spot on advice and representation on Relationship Law, Elder Law, Wills & Estates, Family Businesses & Small Enterprises, Traffic & Police Matters, Property, and Negotiated Dispute Resolution.
