Law Clarified
Hearthstone Legal presents a real talk of the good, the bad and everything in between, for all things business and construction law. Whether it is navigating a dispute, the QBCC, or guidance on a contract – we give you a run down of some of the “Do’s” and the “Don’ts”. These are digestible chats on topics that you might hear in our office of an afternoon. Daunting? Not anymore. Here’s Law: Clarified.
