A big congratulations to Aliesha Miers-Greene on her promotion to Associate Legal Executive!

Since joining our team in 2024, Aliesha has consistently demonstrated exceptional expertise, dedication, and genuine care for her clients. Whether helping first-home buyers, supporting complex commercial transactions, or guiding large-scale property developments, she is known for her practical approach, attention to detail, and commitment to achieving the best outcomes.

In March this year, Aliesha also began studying towards a Law degree. Taking on full-time study while continuing to work full time is no easy feat, and it reflects the dedication, discipline, and ambition she brings to her role.

This promotion is well deserved and reflects the outstanding contribution Aliesha continues to make to our firm. Congratulations, Aliesha!
