12 Wentworth Selborne Chambers

12 Wentworth Selborne Chambers find their strengths within environment and planning, with barristers practising in areas including environmental prosecutions, pollution matters and native title matters. Anna Garsia was instructed by the Department of Planning and Environment in the case of Leda Manorstead Pty Ltd v Dept of Planning and Environment, in which the appellant was convicted by the Land and Environment Court of three offences under s125(1) of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979, which was later dismissed. Jennifer Single SC represents government agencies and has been appointed as Environmental Counsel to the Board of the NSW Crown Solicitor and the NSW Department of Primary Infrastructure and Industry, whereas Sophie Callan SC is experienced in contamination prosecutions and pollution matters. Jillian Caldwell is noted for her work acting for a range of Commonwealth and State ministers, often appearing unled in superior courts, including appellate matters.
