About

Provided by Gilbert + Tobin

Gilbert + Tobin is the firm of choice when the stakes are high. 

Gilbert + Tobin’s Disputes + Investigations practice is comprised of 14 partners and over 90 supporting fee earners based across its offices in Sydney, Melbourne and Perth.

We specialise in assisting clients to navigate complex and significant contentious issues. Many of the cases we conduct involve multiple parties and novel legal or factual issues. Our case strategy begins with identifying our clients’ commercial and regulatory objectives and ensuring the focus throughout is on the protection of their interests. We understand that litigation should always be a last resort but, where necessary, must be handled strategically and commercially, with regard to protecting their reputation.

We have extensive experience advising on sensitive investigations and inquiries - from internal issues to regulatory investigations to Commissions of Inquiry - we understand the need for clarity of thought, discretion, insight and professionalism. We know that the way in which investigations are handled can be the best protection against bigger issues.
