A day for visibility. A day to recognise the many different forms of courage shown by LGBTQIA+ people.

Our Sydney and Brisbane offices came together to celebrate Wear it Purple Day and to show LGBTQIA+ youth that they are seen, valued, and safe. At McCullough Robertson, we know that inclusion drives innovation, engagement and better outcomes for our clients, our employees, and our communities.

Celebrating 100 years of McCullough Robertson with our food and agribusiness clients and colleagues at the Ekka, Queensland’s most iconic celebration of the connection between country and city.

From our beginnings in Barcaldine, our connection to regional Queensland has remained at the heart of our story for 100 years.

The Ekka was the perfect setting to thank our guests for their enduring support and the relationships that have played such a meaningful part in our journey.

A special highlight of the evening was the 2006 charity edition of the Monopoly board game, with guests rolling the dice for the chance to land on the McCullough Robertson sponsored Ekka property square and win a prize.

Whether it’s through hosting regional workshops or sponsoring the RideWest challenge, cycling from Brisbane to Longreach to raise funds for the Royal Flying Doctor Service, McR has always been committed to supporting the communities in which we live and work.

Congratulations to Kristan Conlon, who has been named the recipient of the 2026 Agnes McWhinney Award by Queensland Law Society.

A pioneer who helped pave the way for women in the legal profession, Agnes McWhinney’s legacy makes this recognition particularly meaningful. Throughout Kristan’s career at McCullough Robertson, she has demonstrated outstanding leadership, from becoming a partner in 2007 while on maternity leave, to serving as our first female Chair of Partners, while continuing to mentor others and contribute to our profession and community.

As we celebrate our centenary year, we couldn’t be prouder to see Kristan recognised for her contribution and the example she continues to set for the next generation of women in law.

Congratulations, Kristan, a truly well-deserved achievement.

Independence is in our DNA. While others merged, we stayed true to our founders’ vision, and our name, only dropping the ‘&’ from McCullough & Robertson in 1987.

For 100 years, McCullough Robertson has remained fiercely independent, giving us the freedom to focus on what matters most: our clients, our people, and our values.

That’s what makes us unique. Always.

The McCullough Robertson Centenary Dinner brought together all our Brisbane and Sydney teams as we celebrated our 100th birthday together.

As befitting a 100th birthday party, the night was complete with cake, balloons, party games and prizes - a memorable way to thank the people who have made our centenary year so special. From partners to lawyers to business support professionals, each of our 450+ team members have played a part in shaping our story and helping bring our centenary celebrations to life.

Reflecting on the journey that has brought us here, 100 years of history, achievements and friendships, we were reminded that our greatest strength has always been our people.

And while the Centenary Dinner was a highlight of the year, we're only just over halfway through our centenary celebrations, with even more opportunities ahead to recognise this remarkable milestone together. Here's to 100 years of McCullough Robertson, and the people who are committed to making it all possible.
