What is constitutional law?
Constitutional law deals with the interpretation, application and enforcement of constitutional principles, including the powers of public institutions and the rights and freedoms recognised by the Constitution.
Can constitutional rights be enforced in court?
Where a constitutional or fundamental rights issue arises, legal remedies may be available depending on the circumstances and applicable law. We can review the matter and advise on the appropriate procedure.
Can you challenge the exercise of governmental powers?
Certain exercises of public power may be subject to legal challenge. Whether a challenge is appropriate depends on the facts, the legal authority involved and the applicable constitutional and statutory provisions.

Constitutional issues can involve complex questions of law and public authority. Professional legal advice can help identify the relevant provisions, rights, remedies and appropriate legal procedures.
