I am one of Australia’s leading media and communications law experts, with a practice that covers the full spectrum of media and communications law from both a private commercial and regulatory perspective as well as a public sector perspective. I have unparalleled experience in media and communications law and complex business litigation where there is corporate risk.My areas of expertise include regulatory compliance, breach of confidentiality, defamation/libel, Freedom of Information (FOI), data and personal privacy, and reputational risk management. I frequently act for Government Ministers and other prominent individuals and regularly defend media clients in defamation claims – responding to complaints, settling disputes, mediations and running trials. I regularly contribute opinion pieces and am frequently sought for comment on emerging issues within the media and communication landscape by Australian news outlets.I am a member of numerous boards and committees within the media and communications industry and was recently the first person in the Asia-Pacific to be appointed as International Bar Association Legal Practice Division Chair. It is a privilege to be involved in many of the high-profile stories that break daily and to work in a industry that is constantly evolving.
