SUPPORTING THE CLUB

Salerno Law’s decision to support the Gold Coast Titans was made because our company’s values align with those of the Titans brand. The Partners strongly believe a workplace thrives with not only a dedicated workforce, but quality people committed to a stronger community and building relationships. Salerno Law’s motto ‘the human element in law’ is perfectly emphasised by the alliance with the Titans. The Titans entertain through their hardworking efforts on the field, but also ‘put the human element in rugby league’ with their community engagement.

The Partners at Salerno want to support the Titans players and staff with their expertise and network to help make their time with the Titans a rewarding experience. Salerno Law wants to contribute to Titans game day events to engage locals, encourage tourism and support local businesses. Titans corporate and social events will create new opportunities, in conjunction with Salerno’s promotion of the Titans through all of our various channels and networks, to not only strengthen existing relationships but facilitate building new ones for both parties. Salerno Law is proud to form this bond and contribute to the ongoing success of the Titans.

SUPPORTING INDIGENOUS COMMUNITIES

The Titans and Salerno Law both acknowledge, support and embrace the indigenous community and culture. The Titans have implemented outstanding initiatives like the Deadly Futures, School to Work and Reconciliation Action programs, while Salerno has a long history of involvement in aboriginal initiatives and advocating for aboriginal rights. Along with our Gold Coast office, Salerno has a head office in the remote Western Australian town of Kununurra, which is in the Kimberly region on the traditional lands of the Mirriuwung Gajerrong people. Salerno has supported various indigenous teams in the region, including the Kununurra Hawks, where a budding young superstar named Shogun Salerno was best on ground as he helped the under 13’s to their first premiership.

Furthermore, Salerno has specialists in aboriginal law on issues like Indigenous Land Use Agreements, carbon farming agreements and determination disputes. The national footprint that Salerno Law possesses gives Salerno unique insight into aboriginal affairs, which is why we are so passionate about advocating for first nations people.

SUPPORTING PLAYERS AND THEIR FAMILIES

A Titans game is an emotional experience, with highs and lows across the 80 minutes, let alone the many plot twists that will occur over the course of a season. This is similar to family law. It can often be difficult dealing with parenting, property and relationship disputes, both in the short and long term. Salerno Law is committed to supporting the players, staff and families of the Gold Coast Titans. Salerno is the industry leader when it comes to family law. We have an experienced team that understands and appreciates sensitive situations, while still achieving the best possible outcomes for our clients.

Injuries to Titans players over the course of an NRL season are inevitable, with these injuries having an impact to the teams on field performance. It is unrealistic to think that rugby league players will not sustain injuries, just as it is unrealistic to think that people will not get injured accidentally or negligently over the course of their ordinary lives. Salerno Law is here to support the Titans community in the event of an off field personal injury, as we understand the impact that these matters can have on not only the injured person, but also their family. Our personal injury solicitors have a distinguished record in achieving outstanding results for clients to help alleviate the pain of being injured, with Salerno having brought and delivered personal injury claims in every jurisdiction in Australia.
