Notable cases include Adam Bell SC, commissioned by the NSW Government, delivering his report of his inquiry in the Star Casino, alongside Kate Eastman SC continuing to act as the lead counsel assisting the Disability Royal Commission. Greg O’Mahoney has appeared both led and unled in proceedings across Australia dealing with market abuse, market manipulation and insider trading.
