My practice spans a wide range of industries, including property, infrastructure, energy and resources. I have acted for various listed and unlisted entities in relation to the stamp duty and income tax implications of group restructures, property, infrastructure and business acquisitions and disposals and listed and unlisted syndications. My work also covers property developments, land sales and acquisitions and financing arrangements.

I enjoy adding value through the service I provide key clients, by innovatively structuring transactions and delivering pragmatic advice.
