H & H Lawyers is delighted to announce the promotions of Gina Jung to Senior Associate and Laura Oh to Associate.
These promotions come as our firm celebrates its 30th anniversary and reflect Gina and Laura’s substantial contributions to our practice and to the international and domestic clients we serve.
Since joining H & H Lawyers, Gina has built a reputation as a trusted adviser to Australian subsidiaries of major international corporations and government agencies on workplace and employment matters, with a parallel commercial and corporate practice spanning contracts, disputes and compliance. She is a key member of our commercial and corporate team, particularly valued for her ability to advise on sensitive employment matters where commercial pragmatism is as important as legal accuracy. Thorough and thoughtful in her approach, Gina has a calming influence on colleagues and clients alike – a quality that has made her a steady hand on complex and time-pressured matters.
Laura is admitted in both Australia and New Zealand and brings a distinctive blend of regulatory, commercial and litigation experience to the firm. She has become a go-to adviser for foreign banks navigating their licensing requirements and obligations with APRA, AUSTRAC and ASIC, and also advises international franchisor clients on their Australian market entry and operations. Her bilingual fluency in English and Korean, combined with her prior role as a compliance and risk analyst at Nonghyup Bank, Sydney Branch, gives her a commercial sensibility that clients value. Laura brings energy and enthusiasm to every matter she touches and is a much-appreciated presence within the team and with clients.
“Gina and Laura have consistently delivered the standard of work our clients expect from H & H Lawyers — sharp legal judgment, commercial pragmatism, and a genuine commitment to client service,” said Ken Hong, Managing Partner. “As we celebrate our 30th anniversary this year, these promotions are a fitting recognition of two outstanding lawyers whose dedication has been instrumental to our continued growth. We look forward to the leadership both will bring as we step into our next chapter.”
In their new roles, Gina and Laura will continue to lead matters in their respective practice areas while taking on expanded responsibilities in practice development and client relationship management.
Please join us in congratulating Gina and Laura on these well-deserved promotions.
