"My experience with Scott was that he was far more interested in making sure that I received the correct initial advice to make the right decision, rather than trying to generate an assignment for himself. He was also very knowledgeable in his area of expertise.
In the end I did not require his ongoing services, but gained a very valuable source of potential future legal advice, where I can be confident that my interests will be priporatised ahead of their own."

"As the General Counsel for a renewables construction company, I have worked with a number of external law firms over the years on complex construction disputes. Our experience with Gibson MacNeill Lawyers in a recent Supreme Court subcontracting dispute was excellent.
What stood out was their ability to combine strong legal analysis with a practical understanding of the commercial realities of construction disputes. Their advice was always concise, responsive and focused on achieving the best outcome for the business rather than simply pursuing legal arguments.
I would have no hesitation recommending Gibson MacNeill to companies involved in complex construction or subcontract disputes."

Growing up on the Gold Coast, I never imagined I’d become a lawyer.
About our founder, Scott MacNeill
My path through school was anything but straightforward. I dreamed big but struggled to channel it into results, and by the end of Year 12 my options were limited. My only real academic recognition at the time was a certificate of participation in the high school Westpac Maths competition; which probably tells you everything you need to know. For a while, law felt like someone else’s story.
But there was one thing I never quite lost, the ability to dream. So I applied to Griffith University through the mature age entry pathway, and spent what felt like an eternity pestering the law faculty until they finally let me enrol in a Bachelor of Laws alongside a Bachelor of Arts (Psychology). I grabbed that chance with both hands.
