My clients are primarily developers and funds that undertake large scale residential, commercial and industrial projects, including urban renewal developments. I also act for owners in relation to the acquisition, development and operation of retail shopping centres. This extends to all aspects of retail leasing. In addition, I have extensive experience acting for financiers and borrowers in real estate and corporate finance transactions.

I enjoy working with my clients to find innovative methods of procuring and delivering real estate projects.
