Real estate
We have a team of over 130 lawyers in Australia who understand the full ambit of real estate, environment and planning issues. No other firm in the country combines all three disciplines.
Our reputation is for facilitating - not frustrating - major transactions, helping clients to lock in deals and maximise profits.
Our real estate lawyers are property experts with enormous experience and a great deal of passion for the industry. We have all the legal skills and resources needed to help clients maximise margins, identify, minimise or sell down risk, solve problems and manage complex and diverse real estate projects across multiple jurisdictions.
Our services to clients, especially those with national or cross-state interests, is comprehensive. We have skilled lawyers in each state with expertise in project structuring, acquisitions, sales, leasing, licensing, management, maintenance and fitout agreements. This covers industrial, commercial and retail properties and major residential developments.
Most of our work is with a mix of blue chip corporates, institutional investors and developers. We act for different sides of the property equation. This enables us to spot potential problems while they are still far away and recognise opportunities that may otherwise escape.
