WSG Practice Industries

Profile

My extensive knowledge of the sector allows me to provide strategic advice to a range of clients, including government-owned corporations and authorities, institutional investors and private investors. I am experienced in providing advice to clients in relation to all aspects of property development including land tenure, titling arrangements and transaction structuring, having worked in the sector for many years and also having personally undertaken numerous property developments comprising residential land subdivisions and the construction of numerous luxury apartment buildings.

My extensive experience has allowed to me advise both public and private sector clients involved in the establishment of new and emerging communities, and also the construction and delivery of major linear infrastructure projects including gas and water pipelines and light rail systems.

I'm proud to have been recognised as one of Australia's best lawyers (Best Lawyers in Australia 2017, 2019 and 2020).
