Peter Boyle

I’m an Associate in Slater and Gordon’s Commercial and Project Litigation group, helping a diverse range of clients including property owners, businesses and not-for-profit organisations.

I’m particularly interested in property-based disputes, including helping clients who are:

• facing compulsory acquisition of their land (including complex claims dealing with contamination, town planning and valuation issues)

• affected by fires (including multiple clients affected by the Margaret River bushfires in November 2011)

• claiming under the Water Act.

In commercial disputes, my experience includes:

• representing clients with claims against financial services providers (including acting for hundreds of clients as an independent customer advocate in the Commonwealth Bank of Australia’s Open Advice Review Program)

• advising in relation to Freedom of Information disputes

• advising in relation to applications made to the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC).

I’m also a trusted advisor for a large Victorian Aboriginal corporation and am experienced in advising on governance, not-for-profit and Aboriginal heritage issues.

I began working for Slater and Gordon as a graduate lawyer in 2011 and I've been an Associate since 2016. I pride myself on always delivering thorough case analysis and advice, and providing my clients with practical solutions.
