Carter Newell Lawyers understand the importance of not only providing access and opportunities for people with illness or disability, but to also ensure all staff experience a culture built on support and respect so they can successfully contribute and flourish in all aspects.
The firm has had an established Disability Support Program since 1999 and has provided an opportunity for a number of staff to flourish in an office environment. Our commitment was recognised in 2021 when the firm won the Australian Human Resources Institute (AHRI) Diversity Award for Disability Employment.
