Martin Tranter

Martin Tranter, Principal of his firm, has been practising law since his admission as a Solicitor in 1998. He has dedicated his career to serving the legal needs of the communities in Port Douglas and surrounding regions. His practice encompasses a variety of areas including Body Corporate matters where he deals with Management Rights, Community Titles Scheme development, regulation, and disputes. His expertise extends into Property Law, Conveyancing, the Sale and Purchase of Businesses, Farms, as well as Retail and Commercial Leases. Additionally, Martin offers comprehensive services in Wills, Probate, and Estates. Throughout his career, Martin has represented numerous Bodies Corporate, on-site managers, and developers across Port Douglas, Palm Cove, Cairns, and Townsville. It is evident that his influence and reputation are well-regarded, given his involvement with most of the Body Corporates in Port Douglas. Martin's roots are in the Atherton Tablelands, where he grew up on a farm, and he maintains a deep connection with the farming community. His contribution to the local business landscape includes his role in establishing the Port Douglas Chamber of Commerce. Beyond his professional life, Martin actively supports a range of community organisations with his expertise. Outside the legal realm, Martin enjoys expedition sea kayaking, travelling, and hiking, having completed the challenging Kokoda Trail in 2007. While he approaches sports like touch football and cricket with enthusiasm, his true passion lies in negotiation and legal strategy rather than on-field prowess.
