Canberra

Our Canberra team has long-established relationships with Commonwealth departments and state government agencies. We are experienced in sensitive and high-profile matters, including major investigations for government and public sector clients, and we advise private sector clients across a wide range of industries, including financial institutions, infrastructure and technology.

We are particularly strong in dispute resolution and litigation, and have an in-depth understanding of the legal, commercial and policy sensitivities for organizations operating in Canberra.

Our Canberra lawyers work closely with our teams in Brisbane, Melbourne, Perth and Sydney who work with Commonwealth government entities and who also operate regularly out of the Canberra office. Our Canberra lawyers are also able to draw upon the broad and deep expertise across all practice areas within the other Australian offices as well as globally.

We also provide a full service Indigenous commercial law service through Jaramer Legal, our joint venture with Mailman Law.  Jaramer Legal is the only full service indigenous commercial law firm able to leverage indigenous Procurement Policies (IPP) across federal, state and territory governments, as well as in the corporate sector. It also provides culturally sensitive legal services intrinsically linked to improving economic outcomes for indigenous peoples under the Closing the Gap Policy and other similar initiatives.
