Our Work

We conduct research and analysis, provide advice and draft submissions to assist organisations with their engagement with treaty and truth-telling processes.
We provide legal and strategic advice to Traditional Owners and developers in their engagement with Commonwealth, state/territory and local governments.
We undertake large-scale policy or legislative reviews in areas of native title and land rights, conducting academic research, engaging in broad consultation and applying analytical and creative problem-solving to come up with sensible and practical solutions.

We advise both Traditional Owner Corporations and developers committed to strong ESG practices to negotiate and agree mutually-beneficially agreements covering matters such as compensation, cultural heritage protection and contracting and procurement.
We provide advice to native title holders, Traditional Owner Corporations, developers, governments and non-government organisations on matters pertaining to native title, land rights and cultural heritage.
We assist Traditional Owner groups to mediate disputes and avoid litigation.
Where parties cannot agree, we may assist with legal proceedings to resolve disputes; for example, where native title holders are in dispute with the Commonwealth, state/territory or local government.
We help Traditional Owner Corporations and Prescribed Body Corporates with their corporate governance requirements and provide other general commercial services and advice.
In partnership with large firms, we carry out large-scale public housing class actions across Australia.
