Consulting 

AHP Consulting is for clients wanting access to professionals who have extensive experience in the areas of governance legal and compliance.  We pride ourselves on offering pragmatic implementable solutions in the area of GL&C. For a summary of projects we have experience in, please see Learn More on our home page.

Our consultants use a tool called LawCurator which was born from the constant need in business "to do more with less".  As non traditional providers move into tertiary professional services, opportunities have arisen for buyers of GL&C services to unbundle, that is, to break the service into its constituent parts.  This allows lawyers to focus on what they do best -  legal advice - and reallocate other parts of that work where it can be done without the need for a lawyer.  

Secondments

Businesses face peaks and troughs in demand for key support areas.  AHP is able to help in those peak times - whether it be due to regulaotry change, getting ready of end of financial year or assisting in an inquiry by a regulator, client or other stakeholder.  Clients may also simply want a fresh pair of eyes to see if there is an opportunity to improve the current way they handle their governance.

Legal Practice

To assist clients, AHP has applied in May 2018 to the NSW Law Society to become an incorporated legal practice.  More to follow shortly.
