In a relatively harmless scoop usually reserved for our friends at ALB or Lawyers Weekly, the Firm Spy can today reveal that the incredible expansion of Gilbert + Tobin will now see it emerge as a player in the Melbourne legal market.
As reported by a G+T spy over the weekend:
Danny Gilbert has just made a speech confirming that Gilbert + Tobin will open in Melbourne, FYI.
It is hardly surprising that G+T is proposing to open new offices. It was noted in the BRW (1/10) that:
Telstra has adopted a retainer arrangement with Gilbert + Tobin [described as] “a fixed fee that covers a substantial amount of work.
Presumably the fixed-fee arrangement is lucrative enough for G+T to take on this massive amount of work, and with such a guaranteed amount of money coming into the firm, now doubt a new office down south will not break the bank.
