Special Counsel, Melbourne
I am a commercial contract and corporate advisory specialist with over 20 years' experience in commercial transactions and complex and highly technical contractual matters and corporate law for public and private companies. 

I specialise in major, high profile, high value or strategically important commercial contracts and transactions across a diverse range of industries including retail and consumer brands, manufacturing, transport and logistics, health, food and sport.

I specialise in the review, preparation and negotiation of a wide range of major, novel, high profile or high value commercial agreements including supply agreements, service agreements, distribution agreements, terms and conditions of sale, joint venture agreements, shareholder agreements, ambassador, sponsorship and marketing agreements.

My technical skills and diverse industry and transaction experience allow me to meticulously identify material issues and craft elegant, holistic, practical and commercially minded solutions to complex and major contractual issues.

I provide many of my clients with a unique outsourced general counsel model involving assistance with on-going legal review work and transaction documents which allows me to work with these clients to build trusted relationships and develop a clear understanding of my clients' businesses from a strategic and operational perspective.
