The Private Law Research and Policy Group was established in 2006 to foster research and scholarship in the area of private law. We define ‘private law’ broadly to mean the legal rules and principles that govern the relationships between individuals in society, or between individuals and the state in those situations where the state is afforded no greater privileges than a private person.
Members of the Private Law Group are committed to rigorous legal research and applied legal solutions. We are particularly interested in highlighting research into policy and law reform in the area of private law. The group has more than 25 members and associates with expertise across the full breadth of perspectives in private law.
