EXPERTISE

CORPORATIONS

Every part of the corporate structure has risks and obligations that need to be addressed.  Whether it is advising the corporation, its directors or shareholders, we understand the commercial context.

We can provide you with advice on joint ventures, regulatory matters, company law and governance, commercial contracts and the establishment of legal management structures.

Disputes about and with corporations occur and we understand the complex business challenge that accompanies litigation. We help you in considering all of your options, first evaluating whether litigation can be avoided through alternative measures. If not, we determine the most effective manner for reaching a resolution for you using the Court process.

We act for corporations, their directors and shareholders and understand the critical role of regulators and corporate entities.

Please contact our offices if you would like to discuss your needs on 02 9552 2111
