As a US-based company expanding into Queensland's resources sector, we needed counsel who understood both the legal landscape and the practical realities of mining operations. James Plumb was recommended for his deep expertise, and he exceeded every expectation. His knowledge of Australian mining and energy law is profound, and his strategic foresight was invaluable during our acquisition of a significant mineral lease. James navigated complex native title and environmental regulatory frameworks with precision, clearly explaining each step while protecting our interests. His recognition as a 'Lawyer of the Year' in these fields is well-deserved. Beyond his technical skill, his responsiveness and ability to coordinate with our local Australian team made a challenging cross-border process remarkably smooth. We achieved a favorable outcome with no unforeseen complications, thanks entirely to his diligent and proactive approach.
