Planning, government, infrastructure & environment

Overview

The Planning Government Infrastructure & Environment group designs solutions which extend beyond legal and policy advice, and represent sensible, commercially focused outcomes which accommodate private interests in the context of established public interests.


Our group has developed a longstanding reputation for continual and exceptional performance in planning, designing and executing legal and policy solutions for large development and infrastructure projects in Australia, including new cities, towns and communities.

Our group's market-leading status and reputation as being trusted partners are based on decades of experience acting on State significant projects, including major urban developments, residential, industrial and retail, transport, water supply and wastewater and waste management, flood and stormwater, as well as community facilities, sport and recreation and green infrastructure and open space.

We are recognised for our specialist expertise in the following areas:

  • Planning – Strategic and tactical planning approach to development issues and processes for projects, in particular major residential communities, retail, commercial and industrial developments.
     
  • Government – In-depth understanding of government legislation, policy and processes.
     
  • Infrastructure – Specialist expertise and experience in infrastructure planning, funding and delivery.
     
  • Environment – Legal excellence in all areas of environmental law and policy.

Our credo is to Lead, Simplify and Win with Integrity, and we practice this personally so as to partner with our clients by integrity, lead by planning, simplify by design and win by manoeuvre.
