[6] Clayton Utz is a full-service law firm and provides legal services in a wide variety of practice areas.

The primary focus of the firm is commercial law, although it has broad competence in a large number of practice areas.

[note 2] It is a member of international legal networks such as Lex Mundi and the Pacific Rim Advisory Council.

[13] The firm's corporate team has acted for AMP on its $14 billion acquisition of Axa Pacific Holdings and represented the Singapore Exchange on its proposed merger with ASX.

[20] In 2006 it was revealed that an internal investigation by Clayton Utz had implicated its partner; finding he had engaged in professional misconduct.

That partner, Glenn Eggleton, was found to have given 'potentially perjurious' evidence, and to have taken advantage of McCabe's limited life expectancy while conducting the litigation.
