With three major law schools and over 4200 legal practitioners currently practising, South Australia boasts a strong fraternity of lawyers and solicitors.
According to the Advertiser, among this group are graduate lawyers – young practitioners who have recently finished their university studies and completed their Graduate Diploma of Legal Practice – a journey that can take more than six years.
These positions are highly competitive and are only awarded to top graduates with many firms running programs to attract budding lawyers. Christopher Michalakas is among them.
He graduated from the University of Adelaide in 2021 and works within Grope Hamilton Lawyer’s busy personal injury team.
As he grows in his legal career, Mr Michalakas looks forward to continuing to refine his skills in negotiation and litigation while being a strong advocate for his clients.
“I take great pride in representing clients that are people, and securing for those people successful outcomes, building meaningful relationships and contributing to justice,” he said to the Advertiser.
