We focus on working with successful entrepreneurs, family businesses and investors over the longer term. In order to achieve this, we practice law differently.
In what ways are we different?
-
First, we develop strong relationships. We do this by putting people and outcomes before money. We work as a member of your “in-house team”, rather than as an arm’s length adviser.
-
Then we put you in control. We listen, and we implement. Through our tailored documents, innovative structures and dispute resolution tools, we limit your risks, reduce the cost of unexpected events and build a solid platform to take advantage of opportunities.
-
Finally, we are open and straight forward about how we charge. For commercial matters we provide very accurate estimates of the fees we charge for the work we perform. For dispute matters we clearly set out the stages of the dispute process and the likely costs as things progress. We can only do this successfully if we take the time to clearly understand your objectives, stay within our areas of experience and expertise, and deliver what we promise.
In summary, you come first. Not our egos or our profits. We do everything to put you at the centre.
We work with successful entrepreneurs, investors, private equity firms, super funds and financiers from our offices in Adelaide and Sydney.

Our Philosophy
We believe we are unique in a number of ways:
- We put people first, and we have a genuine interest in business and investments.
- We use our knowledge of the law to provide innovative documents and structures that meet your specific needs – so they have real meaning and represent excellent value.
- We simplify complex issues. We provide advice that you can act on. We do not sit on the fence or provide overly academic advice. We hold opinions.
- We are able to put our advice into action through clear documents and innovative structures.
- We continually innovate – so that our documents and structures blend the ever-changing law with the real world.
- We offer unique value through a blend of high quality documents, innovative structures, delivered by a focused and talented team.
