Government

A trusted and long-standing legal partner of local, state and federal governments across Australia

Governments in Australia operate under constant pressure to maintain transparency and accountability while delivering essential services, upholding fair and representative decision-making, and ensuring the security, welfare, and rights of its people. Digital transformation, complex regulations, and heightened public scrutiny are all driving the growing need for reliable legal support for governments at all levels. A trusted legal partner is essential to enabling governments and statutory bodies to navigate these complexities, protect public interests, and minimise their legal and financial liabilities.

HopgoodGanim has worked with all levels of government and many statutory authorities in Australia, supporting them to deliver major services and critical infrastructure projects for decades. We provide high levels of service and responsiveness to assist government bodies with a wide range of services, from planning, litigation and insurance to employment, technology and commercial contracting. With a deep understanding of government priorities and experience supporting the mandates of government entities, we can partner with you to deliver commercial, cost-conscious outcomes to support critical public services and projects across the country.

Panel Appointments

HopgoodGanim is a member of the Queensland Whole of Government Legal Services Panel, the Commonwealth Legal Services Panel and we act for a considerable number of significant local government entities under their legal services panel arrangements. We also provide ongoing and confidential governance consulting to many agencies and authorities in the public sector.
