Experience
Having spent years managing contracts for builders and developers, Jason decided it was time to use his law degree to defend the lifeblood of the construction sector from those who wanted to exploit it.

From our Founder,
Jason Audsley ...
At 15, I discovered a passion for working with wood and set my sights on becoming a carpenter and finished my trade. Over the years I graduated into project and contract management because I loved solving what seemed like impossible problems.
A couple of decades working alongside builders and developers meant I developed killer skills around the challenges subcontractors face.
At 50, I decided it was time to make a bigger impact. So, I sold my ’71 Corvette to finance going back to school, earned my law degree and set out to level the playing field for hardworking subcontractors everywhere.
So, why get a law degree?
For me it’s simple.
I wanted to dive deep into construction law to better fight for subcontractors.
One quick chat with me will reveal:
Zero lawyer jargon
No designer watches
Zip on the flashy office
But you will get:
Honest, direct, straight talk
Candid practical, useable, advice

All from a tradesman who’s been in your shoes and understands the struggle of getting paid.
I’m passionate about my work and won’t back down from a fight.
I’m a chippie at heart, and my everyday ride is my trusty (and a bit rusty) 10-year-old ute.
I'm no stranger to getting on the tools on weekends, renovating our house or crafting furniture for family and friends.
