How we work
- Candid advice. We will tell you when an announcement is not news, when a statement is too defensive, or when the problem is not a communication one.
- Accuracy first. Nothing goes out that has not been checked, and nothing goes out under your name that you have not approved.
- Confidentiality. What you tell us stays with us. Many enquiries begin before anything is public.
- Clear scope. Objectives, work and fees are agreed in writing before anything starts.
- Working with your advisers. Where lawyers, company secretaries or HR advisers are involved, we fit the communication to their advice.

Our office is at 117A Queensbridge Street, Southbank VIC 3006, open Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm. We work in person in Melbourne and serve clients in Canberra and Sydney, as well as Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Hobart and Darwin.
