WHY THE BLUE HERON?

We chose the Blue Heron to represent our brand for a number of reasons. The Blue Heron is often attributed with intelligence, versatility, partnership, resourcefulness, determination, calmness and grace. We believe that the symbolism of this elegant bird reflects both our professional and personal values and serves as a worthy representative of our business. The Blue Heron also represents our readiness to soar new heights while keeping our values and our culture at our core along the way.

OUR ETHOS

Our firm is built upon an ethical ethos that promotes successful business relationships, both with our clients and internally.

We’re proud of the reputation we have built and are passionate about the industry we work in. Our approach is to build long-term relationships with our clients based on trust and success. We are proactive, flexible, effective and efficient in determining and meeting our client’s objectives, and we have created a team that is focused on those objectives.

We conduct our business with honesty and integrity, maintaining high technical standards that have been proven globally. To support our client relationships, and help our business expand and reach its full potential, we believe in attracting and retaining competent, experienced and talented professionals, that are positive, love change, respect people and take responsibility.

We always deliver results and best value to our clients. Our advice is commercial and based on a solid understanding of the commercial realities of working in-house. We deliver what our clients want, when they want it, and we minimise the use of legal jargon. We make the law simple.

We go forward with enthusiasm seeking to raise the bar in the industry.
