CLAYTON UTZ is a leader in legal services and a firm with a uniquely independent culture.

Our success reflects our focus on our two key assets: our people and our clients.

They range from iconic Australian and multinational corporations and leading government agencies to some of the most marginalised people in Australia who we assist through our Pro Bono practice. In 2015 we reached the milestone of 500,000 pro bono hours - the most of any Australian law firm or any firm outside the US. We encourage our people to show leadership in everything they do and stay true to their direction. We celebrate diversity and we’re passionate about access to justice - as well as giving back to the community through our Community Connect program and the Clayton Utz Foundation.
