Meiling Chu, HWL Ebsworth

Lawyer with extensive experience working across major infrastructure projects. Currently part of the team at HWL Ebsworth Lawyers in their Construction and Infrastructure division.

Formerly an in-house construction lawyer for JKC Australia working on the Ichthys LNG Project in both upstream and downstream international arbitrations.

May brings a unique perspective having worked in both private services and an in-house capacity, having the knowledge to care for both the commercial and legal aspects of a business.

Having studied a double degree in Commerce and Law, and prior to a career change, May was a Business Tax Analyst at Deloitte where she developed her financial acumen.

This has granted her a unique skill set in working with clients, especially in relation to quantum claims, in her current role as a lawyer.
