Members of our team have worked in educational establishments prior to joining the firm. Several still lecture today. Our understanding of the education sector enables us to provide practical, common sense solutions to our clients. We advise Tertiary Institutions, School Boards, the Principals’ Federation, and Principals Advice and Support Ltd, on a myriad of issues ranging from high level, such as mergers of institutions and contracts with overseas institutions, through to day-to-day.

Our work with tertiary institutions, as well as with other public sector organisations, has given us a good understanding of the public sector environment and the relevant statutes which apply. We ensure that our advice fits within this context.

  • Building construction
  • Compliance
  • Corporate governance
  • Dispute resolution
  • Employment
  • Funding and tender programmes
