If you're under 30 and have not yet made a Will, this is your sign to do so.

Most young Australians think estate planning can wait until they are older, but your superannuation, digital assets, savings, personal belongings and even your pets can all be affected if you pass away without a valid Will.

In our latest blog, our Law Clerk, Grace Prigg, explains why having a Will isn't just for later in life. It's about protecting the people you care about and ensuring your wishes are respected now.

We are proudly representing Murry Cod Hatcheries owner, Gregory Semple, in his legal fight against the Commonwealth over alleged PFAS contamination on his property.

After decades of unexplained fish losses, breeding failures, and the eventual collapse of his once thriving aquaculture business, testing revealed PFAS contamination at levels far exceeding current Australian safety guidelines.

Mr Semple’s ongoing legal battle shines a light on the inconsistency in the Commonwealth’s response to PFAS contamination and the stark contrast between its recent action against 3M and its slow response to affected landholders.
