Our unmatched expertise, professionalism and highly tailored approach make us the ideal choice to assist clients in this challenging arena.

I have directly investigated or supervised investigations before the Crime and Corruption Commission Queensland, allegations involving senior executives and a range of other complex issues including workplace misconduct, discrimination, bullying and harassment and work safety incidents. In all investigations I strive to provide a timely, comprehensive and legally defensible report.
