Employment Specialist Firm of the Year
Harmers Workplace Lawyers consolidated its reputation as Australia’s leading workplace law firm by being awarded for the 6th consecutive year, the "Employment Specialist Firm of the Year" at the ALB Australasian Law Awards at The Westin, Sydney on Thursday 19 May, 2011. The firm was also a finalist in the "Corporate Citizen Firm of the Year" and "CSR Firm of the Year" categories in 2011.
The ALB Australasian Law Awards are peer nominated from a wide range of practitioners in the jurisdiction. The judging panel, comprising senior in-house counsel from Australian and multinational corporations and legal practitioners from Australia’s top law firms, determined Harmers Workplace Lawyers as the winner in the employment law category based on set criteria and the work completed by the firm over the last calendar year.

- During 2010, Harmers acted for Kristy Fraser-Kirk in the high profile sexual harassment case against former David Jones CEO Mark McInnes;
- Harmers also successfully represented 50 former Allco finance group employees seeking entitlements worth A$5m-$10m in a class action suit arising from one of the largest corporate collapses of the GFC; and
