Introducing Heather Murdoch
If you need some legal advice, Heather is our go to person.
After wrapping up SB Law early last year, long time CPPA legal support partner David Beck had this to pass on:
"My education law practice will be transferred to Heather Murdoch, and Carol Grant my employment advocate is going to work for Heather’s law firm (Trollope & Co). Heather has vast experience & will be a great help to principals and boards - particularly dealing with OI Act requests / Privacy act / Ombudsman’s issues and the difficult parental complaints that arise."
