About

Phillip Street Associates provides specialist senior legal counsel and transaction project management services in Australia on contract to law firms servicing government, corporations and banks in relation to high-end banking & finance transactions undertaken by them.

Our services span a broad range of banking & finance transactions, all types of general & structured finance and all sectors in which banks & corporates operate.

Our point of difference to other independent & firm legal contractor conduits and platforms is our focus on senior lawyers, in the specialist field of banking & finance, provided only to law firms rather than end clients, in key Australian capital cities.

We're a labour & staffing solution for law firms as opposed to a legal solution for end clients.  We don't provide legal services in any way to individuals, in relation to retail or consumer credit transactions or directly to government, banks or unrelated corporations.

Our business aims to better meet the needs of both law firms and lawyers.

For law firms, we provide senior banking lawyer capacity without the need for incurring out-of-pocket expenses, long term liabilities in connection with making a permanent senior hire or inevitable progression promises, thereby enabling law firms to better control exposure and maintain or improve margin from doing so.

For legal counsel, we provide autonomy, flexibility and better pay, as a trade-off against fixed employment and formal progression to partnership, without downgrading counsel's status as a high-end senior specialist in the market.
