How and why Flynn is a rising star
Flynn is regarded as a rising star for both his strong performance in complex insurance litigation and his active involvement in firm and community initiatives, including the LGBTIQ+ & Allies Network, Pride in Law, and Refugee and Immigration Legal Service (RAILS).

His dedication extends beyond his legal practice, playing a key role in D&I initiatives, pro bono work, and legal education, demonstrating a well-rounded commitment to both the legal profession and the broader insurance industry.
How has BN supported Flynn in his journey
At BN, we’ve supported Flynn’s growth by providing access to complex and challenging matters, close mentorship from senior lawyers, and opportunities to collaborate across practice groups. He has also benefited from our learning and development initiatives, which include structured pro bono opportunities, such as his secondment with RAILS, where he provided legal assistance to asylum seekers on a weekly basis. Flynn’s involvement in internal initiatives, including our LGBTIQ+ & Allies Network and legal education resources like the Current Awareness Alert, has been actively encouraged and resourced. We’re proud to foster an environment where emerging talent like Flynn can thrive professionally while also contributing meaningfully to the community
“I am extremely grateful to be able to work in such a supportive environment at BN, where I am able to learn and develop my skills in the critical early years of my career.“
