Biography
Con Vatmanidis has been admitted to practice as a Barrister & Solicitor since 1995. He is admitted to practice in both the Victorian and Federal jurisdictions and is a member of the Law Institute. Con’s Legal practice is predominantly focused on corporate, commercial, property and estate planning law, with a particular emphasis on commercial law, commercial agreements, sales and acquisitions, investment vehicles & legal structures, developments, conveyancing, leases and wills.
Examples of Con’s experience providing advice relating to the negotiation of commercial agreements, establishment of property holding entities and general investment structures, managing the legal implications and conveyancing requirements of multi-unit developments, unwinding of commercial relationships between parties to a prominent property development, leasing advice (with particular emphasis on the dynamic retail leasing sector), international supply and distribution agreements, trademark applications and general corporate governance advice, such as directors’ duties and liability, corporate constitutions, etc. Con has also advised extensively on acquisitions and disposal of business and shares in privately held companies.
In addition to his legal qualifications, Con has obtained a Masters in Business Administration (MBA). The combination of his qualifications and personal experiences in law and in management give him a flexible and fresh approach when advising clients. This allows him to understand the practical implications of the legal advice he provides to his clients and how the advice will impact on his clients and their respective requirements.
Other Activities
Con has held various Executive positions on a number of community and social organisations, which have brought him into contact with a variety of people.
