The way we work
I established Marrawah Law in 2013 in Cairns in regional Queensland in response to my first-hand experience of the challenges First Nations people face in the legal system. Marrawah Law reflects my passionate belief that everyone should have a voice in that system. The firm has grown to provide a comprehensive range of legal and advisory services to corporate, government and First Nations clients.
At Marrawah Law our clients are central. We are privileged to work with clients who understand the way we work – the social and cultural lens we apply and the broader social impact our work generates.
I am proud to have built a firm that puts clients first and ensures they are at the centre of all decision-making, service delivery and advice. This applies in matters large and small.
We also recognised that often the legal outcome is just the beginning and that our clients want to continue to partner with us on implementation and delivery. Our advisory services complement our legal work and focus on outcomes and opportunities.
We honour our role in empowering First Nations people through our legal and advisory work and supporting them to give back to their communities.
We actively recruit and support new First Nations legal practitioners. Our highly experienced senior lawyers provide mentoring and guidance as they develop skills and expertise to contribute to our firm and First Nations communities.
We bring our values and our commitment to First Nations people to our work with corporates and Government. This is powerful combination results in innovative outcomes. such as .
