Founded in Toowoomba in 1976, the firm is now headquartered in Brisbane, Australia, and currently has over 700 employees based across more than 40 offices across Australia and New Zealand.[6]
Shine Lawyers was founded in 1976 (then known as KG Shine & Co) by Kerry Shine, an Australian Labor Party politician who was member of the Legislative Assembly from 2001 to 2012 and Attorney-General of Queensland from 2006 to 2009. It was rebranded as Shine Lawyers in 2006, under then managing partner Stephen Roche and current managing director Simon Morrison.[7] It was one of the first law firms in the world to list on the ASX, in May 2013.[8][9]
Since 1976 Shine Lawyers has acquired and integrated more than 20 other legal firms.[10] The firm has revealed plans to move into the UK legal market as part of an international acquisition strategy.[11]
Since 1976, Shine Lawyers have handled some difficult and widely publicised cases that have come before Australian Courts.
