Commercial and Corporate

Starting new ventures or scaling your current organisation requires a strategic approach to legal structuring. Our team will identify the most suitable legal structure, considering factors such as liability protection, tax implications, and ownership control.

We guide businesses through sales and acquisitions, from start-up to mergers. With experience in-house and in private practice, we provide practical advice on due diligence, documentation, negotiation, execution, and post-completion matters.

Australia has well-defined privacy laws that organisations need to abide by. Whilst there are some entities that are excluded from these laws, having robust policies, clear guidelines and action plans in place, can help organisations retain their reputation and protect their clients (including in circumstances of a data breach). 

Is your organisation facing complex legal challenges? We provide strategic, commercially focused support in resolving disputes, guiding you through high-pressure situations while protecting your reputation, workforce and financial position.

Looking to strengthen and protect your brand? We provide strategic, commercially focused advice on branding and marketing, helping safeguard your intellectual property, manage risk and ensure your campaigns align with regulatory requirements while supporting your organisation’s growth.

We provide practical, commercially focused advice on contract reviews and negotiations, helping you manage risk, protect your interests, and ensure agreements support your business objectives.

Thinking of starting or buying a practice? Take a look at this checklist and consider all the requirements for embarking on a new business.

If you’re planning to purchase a medical or healthcare business, our checklist will help you understand what to consider and identify during the acquisition process.

This checklist aims to assist medical practices in identifying potential ‘red flags’ that may increase the risk of payroll tax liability.

Our checklist will help you assess how effectively your current systems and protocols protect patients, staff, and the community against potential data breaches.

It is essential to review your pathology or diagnostic imaging service provider arrangements to ensure they do not include prohibited benefits, which could leave your practice liable for serious civil or criminal penalties.

Our tool assists health service providers in navigating compliance requirements in accordance with the APPs and the Privacy Code. It also supports observance to other relevant privacy laws and principles specific to your jurisdiction.
