Overview

Cove Legal offers strategic, professional and cost effective legal services to business clients. Its Principal, Roger Blow, has over 19 years of experience as a solicitor assisting clients with their litigation and commercial law requirements from within large City law firms in both the UK and Australia. Commercial litigation is usually an expensive and time consuming distraction for businesses and therefore every legal dispute strategy needs to be entirely aligned with the commercial objectives of the client. Some disputes justify significant time and investment, others should be dispatched as quickly and as cheaply as possible. With Cove Legal's advice and guidance businesses can ensure that their legal spend, just like the rest of their business, is subjected to a strategic cost/benefit analysis. Cove Legal operates in all of the major Western Australian Courts and Tribunals, including the Supreme, Federal, District, Magistrates and Warden's Courts. Cove also handles matters in the AAT and SAT as well as arbitrations, mediations and expert determinations. Roger Blow acted for many years on behalf of the ATO pursuing winding up and bankruptcy proceedings against companies and individuals. He can therefore provide expert advice to companies and individuals facing the prospect of insolvency proceedings. Other former clients include BHP Billiton, HBOS Australia, Deloittes, Aspen Group, Leighton Contractors, Tutt Bryant, WA Farmers Association, Westralian Pty Ltd, Piacentini & Sons, Calytrix Technologies, Kosmic Sound & Lighting, Premium Grain Handlers and Stockland. Cove Legal offers specialist expertise in the area of media law. Roger Blow has been listed since 2011 as an industry expert in social media law on www.expertguide.com and provides regular commentary to television (Channel 10; GWN) and radio (6PR; ABC) stations as well as the print media (AFR; The Age, The West Australian, SMH).
