Principal of the firm Ian Tait

At Tait & Co, we understand the needs of commercial clients.

To start with, our focus is on providing clients with valuable guidance on setting up structures that can best avoid problems in the future. This is the lowest risk path and generally the most cost effective.

If clients have legal problems, the firm adopts a practical approach to dealing with them in a cost effective and timely manner by providing:

• An honest appraisal of your situation
• The experience to discuss options, possible outcomes, anticipated costs
• ‘Inside’ information on considerations within the legal system
• In-depth knowledge of relevant laws and related matters
• A sharp mind that’s on your side
• The opportunity to make a good commercial decision that balances costs and potential results
• The firm acts for a wide range of clients from listed companies through to small businesses and individuals.

We are proud that the majority of our work comes from two sources: existing clients who demonstrate their confidence in our expertise by bringing their matters to us, and through their referrals.

The firm’s expertise covers all aspects of business law, company law, insolvency law, property law, trade practices law, intellectual property and technology law, employment law and wills and estates.

The firm is able to represent clients in most courts and tribunals in its areas of practice. The firm does not accept instructions in family law and criminal matters.
