Advocacy
We advocate for our clients across all state and federal courts and tribunals.
Our Advocacy Expertise
As part of our strong focus on providing cost-effective legal advice in potentially lengthy disputes, Maddocks has an outstanding team of lawyers experienced in advocating for their clients in courts and tribunals.
Our lawyers carry out the entire process from briefing to presenting their case in court.
They conduct their own advocacy across a range of areas. We have a particular focus on planning appeals and panel hearings, rate and valuation appeals, Freedom of Information issues, administrative reviews, prosecutions, anti-discrimination tribunals and industrial relations. The team has also appeared at most interlocutory hearings in commercial litigation.
Our lawyers have appeared in front of numerous tribunals and commissions across Australia and receive ongoing, extensive training to provide as valuable a service as possible.
