Royal Commissions, inquiries and investigations can have significant legal and reputational consequences for stakeholders involved. It is important to obtain legal advice and representation from those who have a demonstrated history in assisting clients in these processes, where unique issues can arise.

Robodebt Royal Commission: Advised and represented a senior Federal Minister throughout the Royal Commission which was held over 42 hearing days;
Inquiry into the City of Perth: Advised and represented a high-profile City of Perth Councillor throughout both private and public hearings held. The Inquiry was held over 11 months and gave rise to 341 recommendations being made;

Aaron, Nick, and the team at Pragma Legal pair professionalism with practicality to achieve desirable solutions. Having engaged, as well as sat on the opposite to the Pragma team, the firm becomes a trusted advisor through understanding circumstances and objectives, whilst applying proven technical and commercial expertise. The team is always accessible, communicates promptly, and provides clarity in an environment fraught with complexity. I wholeheartedly recommend Pragma Legal to assist you in every step of your legal journey.
Working with Pragma, we got to a commercial outcome that was satisfying for our client financially, personally and morally, and achieved an outcome that exceeded their expectations.
Since working with Pragma, we have found them to be really responsive in all matters and have developed personal relationships with the lawyers there. One of the great benefits that I have experienced is being able to pick up the phone, have the 5-minute call on a discreet matter and get an outcome pretty quickly.
Aaron is an extremely hard working and dedicated professional. His commitment to client service is second to none, and he's a good bloke too. It's probably a bit cliché to say Pragma are pragmatic but really that’s a great way to describe it. The reason I do recommend Pragma is because I know when I send a client or an associate to Pragma that they're going to be happy with the outcome that they receive.
