"Protect your business future with legal solutions that safeguard your vision"

In today’s rapidly evolving business landscape, navigating the complex intersection of law, technology, and commerce requires more than just legal expertise. It demands a forward-thinking approach, a deep understanding of modern business practices and a keen insight into the ever-changing technological landscape. That’s where I come in.

As a Commercial, Intellectual Property (IP), and Technology lawyer based in Queensland, Australia, I offer a unique blend of legal acumen and practical business knowledge.

My approach to providing legal services is rooted in a simple yet powerful philosophy: your success is my success.  My view is that effective legal counsel goes beyond problem-solving – it’s about empowering you to make informed decisions so you can confidently navigate the complexities of the modern business world.

What sets me apart is my background in business and technology. This dual expertise allows me to bridge the gap between legal requirements and practical business needs, offering you insights and strategies that are both legally sound and commercially viable.
