Mills Oakley has strengthened its national partnership with the appointment of partners Matt Huckerby, Holly Ulmer and Lucy Munro, together with Mark Brothers, consultant, who join the firm as part of a 15-person insurance team.

This further enhances the firm’s insurance capability and its ability to support insurers, underwriters, brokers, government agencies and corporate clients across Australia. The team will work closely with partners and lawyers across Mills Oakley’s national platform, offering clients seamless access to the firm’s full-service capabilities.

Mills Oakley Chief Executive Officer John Nerurker said the appointment reinforces the firm’s ability to support clients operating in an increasingly complex insurance and risk environment.

“Matt, Holly, Lucy and Mark have built an outstanding reputation in the insurance market and, together with their team, bring deep expertise across a broad range of personal injury, liability and statutory insurance matters. Their appointment significantly enhances our ability to support insurers, government agencies and corporate clients on complex claims and disputes across Australia.”
Matt Huckerby said the team was excited to join Mills Oakley and contribute to the continued growth of its Insurance practice.

“We are delighted to join Mills Oakley and become part of a firm that has established a strong reputation for client service, collaboration and commercial excellence. The firm’s national platform provides an outstanding opportunity for us to continue delivering exceptional outcomes for our clients while expanding the breadth of services available to them.”

The team joined Mills Oakley on Monday, 3 August, and is now fully integrated into the firm’s national Insurance practice.
