Kimberley "Kim" MacKay

Kim is a partner in the firm's Dispute Resolution & Litigation practice, with a particular focus on insolvency, complex commercial disputes, and class actions.

In insolvency-related matters, she regularly acts on behalf of insolvency practitioners, advising on all matters arising in the administration or liquidation of the company and has conducted applications to Court for directions, undertaken liquidators’ examinations, prosecuted proceedings against directors, advisors and other third parties on behalf of the insolvent company, and defended proceedings, including class actions, brought by investors and other creditors.

In respect to complex commercial disputes, she has acted for both plaintiffs and defendants in relation to breach of contract, negligence, misleading and deceptive conduct, oppression and breach of director duties cases. She has also acted for defendants in large-scale class actions which have involved management of significant volumes of discovery, conducting witness interviews and preparing lay witness statements, briefing experts, bringing and defending interlocutory applications, including appeals, and extensive trial experience.

Aside from her listing in Best Lawyers in Australia, Kim was also recognised by Doyle's Guide as a recommended Victorian lawyer in Commercial Litigation and Dispute Resolution last year.
