About Us

Kahns began in 1940 when Dr Kahn was admitted to practice law in Victoria. He was later joined by Dr Clahr to form the partnership of Kahn & Clahr. In 1961 the firm was expanded with Alexander Garsa joining the partnership and the firm traded as Kahn, Clahr and Garsa.

The firm later merged with the firm of Dizgalvis & Co. Our current partners (John Cascone, Mark Worsnop and Paul Falzon) each joined the firm in the mid-1990s. As an established law firm, Kahns has been located in the Melbourne CBD for over 80 years and has continually focused on exceeding the expectations of its clients whilst delivering astute commercial advice through a modern and practical approach to legal practice.
