Zinta Docherty - Lawyer

Zinta’ primary motivation to her clients is to provide considered and pragmatic advice.

Profile

Zinta is an enthusiastic and interested practitioner, who enjoys achieving great outcomes for her clients. Having joined Kelledy Jones in 2020, Zinta has supported a number of our local government clients in undertaking some pretty exciting community and infrastructure projects.

Zinta’s formative practising years were spent in mid and top tier firms, across a number of jurisdictions in Australia. Zinta also has over a decade of experience as an in-house lawyer. With experience across a number of industries, Zinta has developed a well-rounded understanding of the interplay between the regulatory, commercial and political environment for her clients.

Whilst Zinta’s practice history is broad, these days she focuses her practice in commercial and property work, and has become a trusted advisor to our clients in these fields. Zinta enjoys working together with her clients, to understand their needs, and provide considered and pragmatic recommendations. Whilst she prefers the harmonious relationship-building of commercial law, she’s not afraid to assert her client’s right when things don’t go to plan!

Zinta also specialises in procurement and probity and is often called upon as a probity advisor in risky and/or complex procurement matters.

When Zinta isn’t working, she’s chasing her daughters’ dreams and standing on sidelines of various courts and pitches (usually in sub-optimal weather and/or before the sun has risen). She complains, but she loves it.
