As a lender-focused Firm, we represent leading international and domestic financiers and intermediaries, including all four of the major Australian banks.

Benefit from a team with a wide range of finance knowledge, from significant transactional experience through to regulatory and compliance skills.

Renown for delivering results within short time frames, we are agile in structuring and drafting transactions involving commercial and institutional lending, structured and mezzanine finance, including club and syndicated structures.

Rely on the knowledge base of a team that has advised on structures for general corporate debt, acquisitions, takeovers, resources, property, construction and projects.

In turbulent times, we are ready to handle scenarios of recovery, dispute resolution, litigation, and insolvency and workout.

Through developing web-based solutions, we offer you efficiencies and cost savings through our outsourcing solution, which processes the volume production of less complex loan and security documentation.

Members of our team have been independently recognized as among the region’s leading banking and finance lawyers. Collectively, they were named “Banking and Finance Law Firm of the Year” by Australian Banking & Finance Magazine (AB+F).

Through their leadership positions on business councils, banking industry bodies and taskforces, our team brings more than current knowledge—they are helping to shape the future of the sector.
