Career

Joseph is a construction and infrastructure specialist in the areas of project delivery, outsourcing and dispute resolution. He advises government and the private sector (including financiers, sponsors, principals and contractors) on all aspects of project and infrastructure delivery across a range of sectors, including education, health, property, energy and resources, transport and water.

He immerses himself in projects during the tender phase in order to understand the technical detail and then supports his clients through project delivery with strategic and practical guidance. His experience through all stages of project procurement gives him keen insight into the issues and risks facing clients during the implementation of large and complex projects, something which he brings to the table early and proves invaluable during tender design and contract negotiation.

Lawyer Rankings

Australia > Infrastructure projects and construction

Boasting ‘excellent depth of team and industry knowledge‘, Corrs Chambers Westgarth‘s sizeable bi-coastal practice made great strides in expanding its front-end project capabilities with the high-profile lateral hires of Allen & Overy‘s projects co-head Adam Stapledon and project finance partners James Abbott and Simon Huxley (all of whom joined the Sydney office in late 2022). ‘Exceptional problem solver‘ Chris Ryder (in Perth) and ‘technically brilliant‘ practice co-head Andrew Stephenson (in Melbourne) are the standout construction lawyers, while Joseph Barbaro is another key Melbourne contact for project delivery and outsourcing. Litigators Carla Mills and practice co-head Matthew Muir are also highly recommended in Sydney and Brisbane, respectively. In Victoria, senior partner John Walter and David Warren act for governments, sponsors, contractors and financiers on road and rail PPPs, rolling stock procurement and social infrastructure projects.
