Andy Matthews and Gus Stewart have been selected by their peers for inclusion in the 12th Edition of The Best Lawyers in New Zealand for their work in:
- Competition and Consumer Law (Andy & Gus); and
- Regulatory Practice (Andy).
Andy has been recognised by Best Lawyers® for his work in Competition and Consumer Law since 2014, and for Regulatory Practice since 2016. But this marks the first time Gus enters the list. The full list can be found here.
On Gus’ inaugural Best Lawyers® ranking, Principal Andy Matthews said:
“This is outstanding but deserved recognition for Gus, whose reputation continues to grow both domestically and internationally. The fact that recognition by Best Lawyers is based entirely on peer review is testament to that. It is particularly impressive that Gus is the only non-partner on the list.”
This latest recognition builds on what has been another great year for Matthews Law and its lawyers:
- Chambers Asia Pacific: Andy is again ranked as a Band 1 practitioner for Competition/Antitrust (a ranking he has held since 2006), and Gus has been elevated to “Up and Coming”, in the latest Chambers Asia Pacific guide.
- GCR: Matthews Law is again recognised as a leading firm in the 20th edition of GCR 100.
- Who’s Who Legal: Andy Matthews is recognised as one of only two New Zealand lawyers in Who’s Who Legal: Thought Leaders – Competition 2019.
- Legal 500: Andy is again ranked as a Band 1 practitioner for Competition Law, and Gus has been elevated to a “Next Generation Partner”, in the latest Legal 500 guide.
