Our Promise

We make it our mission to understand the construction, property and planning industries like no other. That’s why we speak your language, not legalese. We always deliver on time and on budget. We value relationships and pride ourselves on assisting with your successful project delivery.

Our Work

We always start by working with you to understand your commercial drivers. Then we use our legal skills to deliver on your commercial goals rather than pursuing esoteric points of law (unless this would advance your position). We start with the end in mind – and maintain that focus throughout the project lifecycle.

Our Clients

We advise property developers, contractors and major corporates on every stage of project delivery. Our clients value our commercial, relationship-based approach to legal advice. Of course we have a passion for the law, but we appreciate our clients are usually more interested in outcomes.
