Quirk Legal

Supporting ILP as our In-house Counsel

Quirk Legal

Commercial and employment law

ILP has partnered with Quirk Legal, a full service commercial and employment law firm that specialises in advising training and education businesses, to offer legal services to our members.

The focus on training and education at Quirk Legal comes from the principals of Quirk Legal, Abi Quirk and Simon Quirk, having both delivered and sold training over a number of years and Simon has also established an ed-tech business. So they understand the training and education industry intimately.

Abi and Simon have blue-chip legal backgrounds having worked in leading international law firms and corporations in Australia and overseas. However, ILP members get access to this expertise at a significantly lower rate than other law firms and you will have direct access to senior lawyers who not only have years of leading experience, they have also run their own businesses so intimately understand what business owners need from a lawyer.

Principal Simon Quirk stated about the partnership:

“We are delighted to partner with ILP and support the great work that they do for their members. We’re passionate about education and training and look forward to helping ILP members make the most of their opportunities and manage their risks, delivering peace of mind to members in a cost-effective manner.“
