MAURICE BLACKBURN LAWYERS

Maurice Blackburn takes pride in being the foremost social justice law firm in Australia. Our reputation is founded on the unwavering belief that the law should be a service accessible to all, not just those with financial means.

In 1919, Maurice Blackburn, a visionary with a strong commitment to civil liberties, set the course for the pursuit of social justice in Australia. Over the years, his law firm has played a pivotal role in numerous significant legal decisions in Australia, including the establishment of the 40-hour workweek, advocating for equal pay for women and Indigenous laborers, opposing the patenting of human genes, and achieving the largest class action settlement in Australian history.
