6 March 1950 - 29 August 2023
We carry a heavy heart following the passing of long-time Partner and colleague Professor John Stumbles. John passed away on Tuesday 29 August 2023. A partner in our Sydney Banking & Finance team from 1984 to 2007, John then moved on to become a Professor of Law at University of Technology Sydney and Sydney University. John remained very close to the firm and spent many years working with us in developing our Legal Excellence platform. John had an extraordinary mind and was one of Australia’s preeminent lawyers. John's counsel was not only sought by the most important financial institutions and leading law firms of the world, but also many international governments and agencies.
He was a true gentleman, mentor, teacher and more importantly a friend to many. Our thoughts are with John’s family and friends.
