How can Aptum help?
Litigation involving Government and regulatory bodies are often fact and evidence heavy, document intensive and technically complex disputes to manage and execute.
Aptum’s leadership team have experience on joint taskforces such as Project Wickenby and the Serious Financial Crime Taskforce, and in large scale competition law disputes.
Aptum’s wider team are experienced in complex commercial litigation on behalf of various Government bodies, departments and agencies, as well as for companies responding to investigations.
Our familiarity with the Australian Taxation Office (ATO), the Australian Securities and Investment Commission (ASIC) and the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) enables us to advise on the most effective course of action when investigations seem likely, and respond strategically when notices are issued.
As a litigation-only firm, Aptum’s expertise in trial has seen us work with many companies in contested hearings, including appealing regulatory and administrative decisions to the Administrative Appeals Tribunal (AAT).
