About us

Altus Lawyers is a leading Australian legal firm focused on the resolution of sensitive and complex disputes. We understand that effective communication is a fundamental aspect often overlooked by many practitioners, and it is central to how we build confidence and trust with our clients. From the outset, we prioritise transparency—whether it be in outlining legal options, managing costs, or detailing the challenges inherent in any dispute. This commitment ensures our clients are fully informed and empowered throughout their matter. Our expertise spans a range of interrelated commercial law areas, reflecting the multifaceted nature of most disputes. We provide assistance in corporate disagreements, helping business owners navigate differences in critical decision-making. We advise on regulatory investigations, where understanding your legal rights in the face of corporate regulators’ extensive powers is essential. Our team also handles matters involving land and real estate, recognising the competing interests that may arise in property disputes. Beyond these, we have significant experience in litigation and dispute resolution, employing a broad array of strategies including court proceedings when necessary. We work with clients facing insolvency challenges, where timely and precise action can make a significant difference. Additionally, we advise on trust law matters, upholding the high standards required in managing assets on behalf of others. Choosing Altus Lawyers means benefiting from modern, responsive legal services. We provide clients with 24-hour access to an online dashboard, allowing transparent monitoring of their matters. We communicate in a manner that suits our clients’ preferences and are committed to being accessible and prompt in our responses.
