‘Piper Alderman consistently provides accurate and timely legal support. We initially engaged Piper Alderman to assist us to prepare a range of contract templates for us. More recently, they assisted us to prepare complex contractual documents for one of our largest projects. We required a very quick turnaround on this document and Piper Alderman ensured we had the document as soon as possible. If it wasn't for their intimate knowledge of our business and projects, the document would have taken at least double the time to prepare.’
