Ella is a construction and infrastructure lawyer with experience across a broad range of front-end and back-end matters. She has worked on a diverse portfolio of projects spanning transport infrastructure, mining and energy, health, property development, defence, commercial and residential construction, civil infrastructure, and engineering.
Ella is committed to delivering clear, practical, and commercially focused advice, applying an organised and detail-oriented approach to help clients successfully navigate each stage of a project.
Her experience includes preparing and advising on a variety of construction contracts, contract suites, and ancillary project documents for developers, principals, contractors, consultants, and suppliers, as well as commercial and retail leases. She also assists clients in bringing and defending litigation, contractual claims, and applications under security of payment legislation across national jurisdictions.
A commercial lease is more than a document that gives you the right to occupy a space. It is a strategic tool that shapes the financial and operational relationship between landlord and tenant. Get it right, and it can support a stable and productive business relationship. Get it wrong, and you may face costly disputes, unexpected liabilities, and limited options to exit or adapt.
