Andrew Bailey
Andrew Bailey commenced practice at the Bar in August 2014 after 12 years in practice as a solicitor: initially in Queensland, but principally in New South Wales since 2003, with responsibility for the conduct of matters in Victoria. Andrew accepts briefs in most areas of practice: particularly administrative law, bankruptcy and insolvency, commercial, construction, and equity. In his time as a solicitor, he has had some familiarity with costs litigation on behalf of firms he has worked for. This has developed into a discrete area of Andrew's practice at the Bar. Having an undergraduate degree in psychology, Andrew maintains an academic interest in psychiatric injury as a discrete legal topic.
