International
As the largest independent law firm in Queensland and the Australian mid-market specialist in what is the classic mid-market economy, we are a proxy for all that is good about the Australian market – energy and resources, projects and tech across a full service law firm which knows our market. Investing in a foreign country takes courage, foresight, precision and intellectual clarity, qualities we share with our international clients. We understand that.
For many international corporates and funds, we are the preferred supplier of complex legal advice in Australia.
For Australian corporates and funds seeking opportunities overseas too, we bring a depth and breadth of relationships and experience to handle complex matters across international borders and time zones.
Our cross border relationships are unparalleled in Australia.
We know Australia and we understand the international needs of overseas and local clients. We know how to avoid cultural clash and how to unlock success together with you in Australia.
