CGLaw welcomes education sector lawyer Ben Foley

You are here: Home / News / CGLaw welcomes education sector lawyer Ben Foley

Clifford Gouldson is pleased to announce that Ben Foley has rejoined our firm as Special Counsel to lead our new niche practice for the Education sector.

Previously a Senior Lawyer with CGLaw, Ben has most recently completed a very successful 10 year tenure as Director of Enrolments and Marketing at Toowoomba Grammar School.

Managing Director Ben Gouldson said, “This is an exciting development for our firm as we continue to grow and develop our legal offerings to market segments with a need for specialty services.”

“Ben’s in depth knowledge of the education sector at an executive level combined with his expertise in workplace law and the legal issues that are unique to this area represents a fantastic combination that we are certain CGLaw clients will appreciate and benefit from.”

Ben Foley said, “I am very excited to be back at CGLaw to take on the responsibility of building a specialty education practice.”

“I’ve seen first hand in my years within a leading independent school that legal advice built on a one size fits all model just doesn’t provide good value to education institutions.”

“Issues relating to managing their employees, managing facilities and ensuring the absolute best possible safe and positive learning environment for their students means schools are unlike other clients most law firms advise.”

Ben Foley started with the firm on 1 February and will work primarily out of our Brisbane office but will travel regularly to our offices in Toowoomba and on the Sunshine Coast.

Ben’s expertise as a lawyer with a decade of critical education sector insight and experience is already in strong demand seeing him already engaged to present at a number of education sector conferences both locally and interstate.

Ben is also developing a program of short seminars and lunchtime “bites” videos aimed specifically at School Administrators and HR Managers.  To ensure you receive information about this program please email our office to join our email list.

Our education based legal services will be provided in a way that is best suited to the sector, unlike your average legal providers, so we invite anyone that would like a no obligation discussion about how we can help to contact Ben Foley via email or 0490 545 826.
