Dr Teresa Nicoletti, Partner at Australian firm Piper Alderman, has won the Lawyers Weekly Award for ‘2016 Partner of the Year – Health’.
More than 400 people gathered at the Sofitel Wentworth in Sydney on Thursday, 19 May 2016, to celebrate the achievements of the 21 Partner of the Year Awards winners at a black-tie gala dinner.
Twenty-two high-profile judges faced the grueling challenge of narrowing down submissions to one ultimate winner in each of the 21 practice area-based award categories.
Teresa's submission focused on her client service, leadership in the health space as well as her advocacy work in pursuit of the legislation of medical marijuana. Most recently, Teresa recorded a podcast speaking extensively about proposed legislation of medical marijuana. Click here to listen to the podcast.

She takes personal accountability for the delivery and quality of the advice.”
