HWL Ebsworth has announced the appointment of Scott Charaneka as a partner in the firm’s financial services team.
Charaneka joins from Norton Rose in Sydney where he was also a partner, and will be relocating to HWL Ebsworth's Melbourne office in due course.
He has expertise in the establishment, licensing, administration, distribution, disclosure, compliance and claims matters associated with superannuation, funds management and life insurance.
Charaneka's experience is enhanced by his previous in-house counsel roles at Legal & General Group and ING. “I am confident that with Scott's background, he will add strategic value to our clients,” said Juan Martinez, managing partner of HWL Ebsworth.
The firm recently appointed two Macpherson + Kelley partners.
