  • Independent assessment against the relevant Australian Standards, council controls and applicable modelling guidance

  • Site-specific modelling in TUFLOW, HEC-RAS, DRAINS or MUSIC where the evidence requires it

  • Opinions expressed in terms a court or a client can follow, with assumptions and limitations stated plainly

  • Early merit advice — including where the engineering doesn't support the position
