Tech-centric practice Biztech Lawyers is joining forces with American-based firm Spillman & Partners, operating under the former’s banner.
The merger brings together two firms that already complement each other on joint representations regarding cross-border transactions involving Australia, the US, the UK and other global jurisdictions, Biztech said in a statement.
The merger, Biztech founder Anthony Bekker , was the next natural step in the progression of the two practices’ relationship.
“I’ve been working with Chris Spillman and his team for over seven years now, first as a client, then as co-counsel. It’s always been a pleasure. We noticed we were working together with increasing frequency for our common global scale up clients,” he said.
“We have been stitching together cross-border deals and providing joined up AU-US legal advice that few others can offer at an affordable price point. The next natural step was to formalise the offering through a merger.”
The newly expanded Biztech Lawyers will continue to focus on serving technology and other start-up and high-growth businesses with all their commercial legal needs (specialising in complex transactional, data, privacy, corporate and commercial), having already secured an “impressive calibre” of clients including a number of leading Australian, US and multinational businesses.
