We are proud to announce that Aptum has once again been recommended in the 2025 Doyle’s Guide to Leading Commercial Litigation & Dispute Resolution Law Firms in Victoria.

This marks the third consecutive year that Aptum has been recognised for its excellence in litigation and dispute resolution by Doyles Guide.

Doyle’s Guide is one of Australia’s most respected legal directories, providing independent rankings of law firms and lawyers based on merit and reputation within the legal community, without influence from submissions or sponsorship.

In addition to the firm’s recognition, Nigel Evans, Managing Director and Practice Lead (Commercial Disputes), has also been individually recommended in the 2025 Doyle’s Guide to Leading Commercial Litigation & Dispute Resolution Lawyers in Victoria. Nigel has been elevated to the category of ‘Leading’ lawyers in this space alongside partners of national and international law firms. This is Nigel’s third straight year being acknowledged among Victoria’s top litigation practitioners, reflecting his consistent leadership and expertise in complex commercial disputes.

“It’s an honour to be included in Doyle’s Guide again this year,” said Nigel Evans. “I’m incredibly grateful to our clients and peers for their trust and support, and to the exceptional team at Aptum who make this work possible. I hope this recognition helps to communicate Aptum’s collective effort to challenge the traditional model and deliver better outcomes and experiences for our clients.”

We thank our clients, peers, and the broader legal community for their continued support. We look forward to another year of delivering clarity and confidence in litigation.
