About Us

Our practice covers essential areas such as Indigenous cultural heritage, natural resource management, and policy development. We are committed to advancing Indigenous rights and securing land justice outcomes through expert legal advice and policy consultancy.

Located on the unceded lands of the Wurundjeri Peoples in Naarm (Carlton, Melbourne), our office is located near the Aboriginal land justice and civil rights hub of Fitzroy and Blak Excellence academic research centres at The University of Melbourne in Parkville. With decades of experience, we remain deeply committed to self-determination, equity, and justice.

"Navigating the policy environment in which Traditional Owners’ cultural heritage & native title rights function requires a team with broad experience in these areas. Through our work in regulatory and statutory environments, expertise development, mediation and policy, we provide thought leadership in the sector."

_{Storey & Ward Lawyers operate nationwide, supporting corporations and organisations in navigating the complexities of native title legislation, Indigenous cultural heritage protection, and matters relating to resource management.}

We provide legal representation, policy advocacy, and expertise development, helping communities and entities achieve their land rights goals while preserving cultural heritage.

We additionally offer tailored training and thought leadership across the sector, equipping professionals, Traditional Owners, and organisations with the knowledge and tools needed to assert cultural heritage rights, manage lands, and enhance business development.

Whether assisting with regulatory complexities or guiding policy reform, we are dedicated to delivering the highest standard of legal and policy advice to ensure that clients have the tools necessary to thrive.
