She combines her academic background, (previously at the University of New South Wales, where she taught the law component in a postgraduate course in Drug Development Studies and Pharmaceutical Medicine to scientists, doctors, nurses, pharmacists and other health professionals, currently at Monash University), with her practice experience to provide clients with practical and commercial solutions to their legal issues.

She is on several panels including that of the Office of the Small Business Commissioner, the Single List of External Mediators for the Magistrates’ Court of Victoria and the Civil Mediation Program for the Dispute Settlement Centre of Victoria. Having worked internationally, with multinational pharmaceutical companies, in chambers and with major law firms, Vasantha draws on over 32 years of experience when advising clients, providing commercial solutions and resolving conflict.
