About Slater and Gordon Lawyers

Founded in Williamstown, Victoria in 1935 by William Slater and Hugh Gordon, Slater and Gordon Lawyers has grown to become one of Australia’s most respected and storied law firms. Built on an unyielding dedication to social justice, trade union solidarity, and democratic rights, the firm pioneered the revolutionary “No Win, No Fee” arrangement in Australia—democratising access to the justice system for everyday working people who otherwise could never afford legal representation against powerful corporations, insurers, and government entities.

Over nine decades, Slater and Gordon has led landmark legal battles in Australian legal history, including the groundbreaking asbestos claims for victims of Wittenoom, the transformative Ok Tedi environmental disaster litigation in Papua New Guinea, the historic Robodebt class action, and systemic financial and consumer group proceedings. Today, operating national offices across Victoria, New South Wales, Queensland, Western Australia, South Australia, and the ACT, Slater and Gordon’s ethos remains firmly anchored in its defining philosophy: “People caring for people.” Every solicitor, legal executive, paralegal, and corporate professional shares an authentic commitment to empathy, professional excellence, and championing fairness for clients navigating the most difficult moments of their lives.
