As managing partner of Henry Davis York it gives me great pleasure to welcome you to our website.
What differentiates Henry Davis York from other firms is our unique combination of expertise and being great people to work with.
With 54 partners and more than 380 staff, Henry Davis York is a leading full service corporate law firm which practises nationally from its base in Sydney. The firm specialises in financial services and the NSW Government sector and has an office in Brisbane dedicated to providing on-the-ground advice on restructuring, insolvency, banking disputes and recoveries to the Queensland market.
Henry Davis York is known as a firm that delivers excellence and value across all of its specialist areas of Banking & Finance, Restructuring & Insolvency, Property & Construction, Environment & Planning, Dispute Resolution, Financial Services, Corporate & Commercial and Workplace Relations & Safety. We are proud to be internationally recognised for having a leading banking and financial services practice and for our pre-eminence as advisers to the NSW public sector.
We partner with an impressive list of clients who recognise our unique approach to delivering technical excellence with the commercial edge that creates the real value for their business. Our clients include the top four Australian banks, international financial services organisations and fund managers, market authorities, ASX and foreign listed companies, NSW Government agencies, property groups and a diverse range of privately held companies.
Our success comes, in part, because of our close, cohesive culture which enables us to seamlessly provide services to our clients nationally and internationally. Last year over 15% of our revenue came from offshore clients.
We value our culture of being a friendly, collegiate firm which clients enjoy working with and where our people enjoy coming to work. Clients notice the difference and often tell us this is one of the reasons they keep coming back.
We are also growing and thriving. In the last two years Henry Davis York has experienced record growth with a 14% increase in revenue in FY 2010 and over 15% revenue growth the year before. Last year we appointed seven new partners and enjoyed 10% employee growth.
To cap off our success, Henry Davis York was awarded the ALB Sydney Law Firm of the Year in 2010 and 2011, received a citation as a Preferred Employer for Women from the Equal Opportunity for Women in the Workplace Agency and had several partners listed as leading lawyers by Chambers Global 2011, Asia Pacific Legal 500 2011, Best Lawyers 2011 and are listed as a top tier firm in the IFLR 2011 rankings.
