or the CEO of a start-up, operating in today’s fast-paced economic environment requires constant attention
and agility.
Our team is known for its internal collaboration – with many of our Partners working together for decades to deliver truly client-centric and commercial results for clients.
Blending our technical legal skills with our experience in the many facets of operating a business, we deliver advice and solutions on property, planning and environment, employment and workplace advisory, general corporate and commercial and, where necessary, litigation and dispute resolution.
Looking beyond the immediate issues at hand, our team also work with clients to de-risk and safeguard their future operations. Engaging the Carter Newell team at the front end of your commercial ventures reduces the likelihood of requiring them at the back end.
