Natalie is well versed in and is an expert with contract, business and commercial matters.

Natalie regularly advises small, medium and larger entitles in the sale and purchases of businesses, advises on and drafts contracts and agreements including but not limited to various business contracts, such as unitholder and shareholder agreements, and preparing general terms and conditions for websites, product sales and trade contracting / subcontracting.

 

She acts for clients in restructuring and transactional work and is also experienced in commercial leasing, loans, security charges and general mezzanine finance matters as well as restrictive covenants.

 

Natalie’s approach focuses on achieving the best result for her clients by not only looking at the legal aspect of a transaction but by being practical and commercially minded. Natalie considers herself to be a pretty down to earth person who is responsive, timely and is driven by challenge when confronted with adversity. When working on a matter, Natalie considers it so important, to always place herself in the client’s shoes at all times to ensure she understands client needs and goals.

 

Outside of work, Natalie loves to appreciate and learn about food and wine, spend time with her partner and her kids and travelling back to Vanuatu to spend time with her family.

If you can’t fly then run, if you can’t run then walk, if you can’t walk then crawl, but whatever you do, you have to keep moving forward.
