Repeatedly recognized as leading dispute resolution lawyers in legal industry publications, our litigation team members are skilled in remaining focused on your end goal and applying good commercial sense throughout.

After careful listening and questioning, we promptly present an objective assessment of your position, marry that assessment with your end goal and recommend immediate steps to be taken.

Early intervention to achieve a satisfactory settlement is central to our approach. In protecting your commercial interests, we seek to avoid time-consuming and costly court proceedings. From the outset, we provide an assessment of the costs and monitor those costs throughout.

The team has extensive experience in conducting negotiations and mediations, and where necessary, adjudications, arbitrations and litigation proceedings, in complex disputes for plaintiff and defendants in a range of commercial scenarios.

General commercial contracts
Trade practices

While we advise clients across a range of industries, we are noted for work in resolving complex disputes for major Australian banks and financial institutions, leading insolvency firms, multinational property and construction companies, and in disputes involving South Pacific jurisdictions.
