Pamela Jack
Managing Partner Strategic Clients & Industries
I have more than 30 years' experience working as a lawyer in the construction, engineering and infrastructure industries. I have concentrated on major infrastructure, commercial, industrial and residential developments, acting for both public and private sector clients. This includes many of the country’s major contractors and ASX 100 companies.
  • +61 2 9921 8700
  • +61 421 059 844

In addition to my transactional experience advising on some of Australia’s most iconic projects, I have also acted for similar clients in the event of disputes. My deep understanding of the infrastructure field enables me to provide critical strategic advice on risk management, contentious issues, as well as general legal operations in the sector.
