We advise individuals and businesses on privacy law compliance, data breach response, technology contracts, software agreements, and IT disputes under Australian privacy legislation including the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth). As technology becomes increasingly central to how businesses operate, having clear legal advice on your obligations and rights in the digital space is more important than ever.
We assist individuals and businesses with trademark registration, intellectual property protection, copyright disputes, and enforcement of intellectual property rights in Australia and internationally.

We provide criminal defence representation across all NSW courts for individuals facing charges ranging from summary offences in the Local Court to serious indictable matters in the District and Supreme Courts of New South Wales. Our criminal lawyers act on matters including assault, fraud, drug offences, traffic offences, and white collar crime. We are available for urgent criminal matters and can advise at the earliest stage of a police investigation, before charges are laid, through to trial and appeal.
We act for individuals and businesses in defamation matters including online defamation, social media posts, false reviews, and business reputation disputes. Our Sydney defamation lawyers advise on whether a publication meets the serious harm threshold required under the Defamation Act 2005 (NSW), draft and respond to concerns notices, and represent clients in defamation proceedings in NSW courts. Time limits apply in defamation matters. You have only 12 months from the date of publication to commence proceedings so it is important to seek advice as early as possible.
