Simpsons was founded in 1986 by Shane Simpson AM with a clear purpose: to assist those in the creative and cultural sectors and those in need of specialist intellectual property advice. More than 25 years later, that same focus remains steadfast.

Simpsons has built a strong reputation as one of Australia’s most highly regarded intellectual property and entertainment practices. Simpsons clientele is predominately blue-chip clients including major book publishers, film and TV producers and financiers, record companies, media platforms, music publishing companies and celebrities, as well as Commonwealth and State Government cultural institutions. 

The firm and its lawyers are highly commended in the legal review publications Chambers, Legal 500 and Doyle’s Guide.
