Native Title, Heritage and Agreements
We are a preeminent team in Native Title, one of the few to advise all parties including title holders, claimants, private sector proponents and governments.
How we can help
Native title in Australia is changing. G+T are at the forefront of those changes. Our native title practice is exceptionally strong, built on deep understanding and strong relationships with native title groups. Our solutions-oriented team acts for all stakeholders in the space. This means we have a unique understanding of the issues each interest group faces, and can advise our clients on how to work within that to achieve results.
We assist with the internal governance of native title trusts and Indigenous organisations, managing liability under native title agreements in complex situations, and addressing Aboriginal heritage issues and statutory entitlements related to native title. Our team's breadth of expertise makes us trusted advisers to both proponents and native title holders, as well as government. Our unique position allows us to help clients navigate the complex landscape of native title and heritage law. We help ensure compliance, mitigate risks, and foster positive relationships with Indigenous communities.
