We have extensive experience acting on large and complex development projects for developers, landowners, government authorities and corporations.
 
Our approach to solving problems is both creative and practical. If required, we can provide customised real-time online reporting for your development site or property portfolio.

We were the first legal practice in Australia to develop an online property contract exchange platform, revolutionising the way real estate is bought and sold.
 
We are closely involved with key property associations such as the Urban Development Institute of Australia, the Green Building Council of Australia and the Australian Property Institute.
