Mark Addison – Our Principal

I began my legal career in 1988 with bachelor's degrees in Economics and Law. I was made a partner of the law firm, then known as Barker Gosling, in Sydney in 1997. I left DibbsBarkerin April 2018 and began Addison Legal Pty Ltd, which also consults to Keypoint Law.

I am a member of:

  • the NSW Law Society
  • The Australian Reconstruction, Insolvency and Turnaround Association
  • INSOL (International Insolvency practitioners)
  • The Resolution Institute of Australia and NZ
  • The NSW Law Society and the NSW Supreme Court mediator panels

I was also the National Risk Management partner of DibbsBarker for 9 years.
I have been recognised as a leading Insolvency and Reconstruction lawyer in numerous legal directories, including Doyle’s Guide, Legal500, Chambers, and AsiaLaw.
