Property has been a huge growth area for investment and development. However, the outcome of a deal can vary significantly given variables such as contractual terms, structuring, financing options, risk and tax implications.

Our Property team regularly advices on transactions ranging in value from the small and simple to the large and complex. We also have considerable experience in environment and planning issues, construction projects, and structuring commercial leasing developments, such as shopping centres, high-rise office buildings, hotels, farms and aged care facilities. These projects carry significant risks and opportunities for the developers, investors, contractors and service providers involved. That's why sound, commercially focused legal advice, including guidance on risk management and dispute avoidance, is so important to our clients.

When property disputes do occur, our litigation, arbitration and mediation experience allows us to deliver the best commercial solutions for our clients.

  • property acquisition and disposals
  • bank facility structuring
  • construction
  • contract negotiation and preparation
  • conveyancing
