Corporate Governance

Achieve Real Results from South-East Queensland's Leading Corporate Governance Lawyers

The importance of prudent corporate governance and leadership decision-making has been underscored by the rising risk of regulatory action, shareholder litigation, and investigations.

Our corporate governance lawyers provide strong advice to Board chairs, non-executive directors, CEOs, company secretaries, corporate counsel, and other senior executives to enhance their ability to carry out their responsibilities effectively and improve their decision-making and performance.

How We Help


We provide personalised and confidential advice on regulatory compliance and governance matters.


We believe in proactive strategies to prevent governance issues from arising and offer guidance on a range of topics, including:

  • Implementing best practices in commercial, legal, and ethical standards

  • Responding to crises and major incidents

  • Understanding directors' duties and liabilities

  • Providing guidance on indemnities and insurance matters

  • Drafting and amending constitutions

  • Managing shareholder and investor relations

  • Structuring director and senior executive remuneration and incentives

  • Ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements, including market disclosures and investigations into corporate crime and insider trading


We Believe Fostering a Culture of Compliance is Key


At RHC Solicitors, we take a unique approach to corporate legal services that sets us apart from our competitors. Beyond merely diagnosing legal compliance and risk management issues, we place great emphasis on cultivating good culture; a culture that thrives on complying with good principles and practices.


One of the standout features of our approach is our skill at learning our clients and developing tailor-made solutions. These solutions are strategically designed to support your organisation in fostering a robust compliance culture and implementing effective policies and procedures.


Regardless of whether your business operates in Brisbane, interstate, or overseas, our corporate lawyers work diligently to protect your business not just in the present but for years to come.


Our Diverse Clientele in Compliance and Corporate Governance


We cater to a wide range of industries and clients from listed companies, private companies, and quasi-government regulators.


Our experienced lawyers provide counsel to both listed and unlisted companies on various corporate governance matters, such as directors' duties, ASIC regulatory guides, and issues under the Corporations Act 2001.


We have a proven track record of developing and implementing workplace health and safety compliance programs for major companies across Australia. In particular, we are highly experienced in workplace health and safety, employment disputes, trade practices and competition law, privacy, director’s duties and alleged breaches, as well as handling employment terminations and investigations.


Meeting Client Needs and Regulatory Expectations and Requirements


Our corporate lawyers have a proven track record of implementing and auditing compliance systems across diverse industry sectors.
