Questions clients ask us most often

I've been called in by NAB for an inquiry. What should I do?

A NAB inquiry should be taken seriously, particularly where a notice or call-up has been issued. We review the notice and allegations, advise you on your legal position and represent you during the inquiry and any subsequent proceedings where appropriate.

How do I respond to a corruption allegation against me or my business?

We review the allegations, documents and circumstances surrounding the matter and help prepare your defence. Where required, we represent you before NAB, the relevant accountability court and other competent forums.

I have received a NAB call-up notice. Do I have to appear?

The legal effect of a NAB notice depends on its contents, the stage of the inquiry and the circumstances of the case. We review the notice and advise you on the appropriate response and whether any legal remedy is available.
