Our conveyancing team can look after all aspects your property sales and acquisitions from a first home purchase, to the registration and splitting of lots for property developers. We offer fixed fees and detailed searches so you know what is included and how much you are paying. We transfer properties using the digital conveyancing platform PEXA.
If you are an Agent, we will keep you appraised at each step of the process so you know where the deal stands. If you need assistance with drafting special conditions you can email our Property@ email for a clause that meets your needs.
Criminal Law
If you have been charged with a criminal offence in Queensland, NSW or Victoria we can assist. Our experienced criminal lawyers can walk you through the largely codified criminal law, and advise you on the strength of the charges laid against you, and your immediate defences. In many cases we can negotiate the charges down to a lesser offence, or be withdrawn altogether. For more serious matters we may engage a specialist barrister to guide your case and seek tactical opportunities to deal with the charges. Our focus when representing you in criminal matters is to tell you clearly where you stand, and to look for opportunities to minimise the consequences, or to see the matter dismissed if possible.
Wills and Estates
A Will is one of the most under-rated administrative requirements of life. Regardless of age or health, every adult should have a Will. A Will can spare your loved ones from becoming entangled in expensive, stressful, or acrimonious distribution of your property after you pass. When the time comes, we can assist your family through the necessities of obtaining probate (validation of your Will), paying your expenses, and distributing your estate in accordance with your wishes.
We offer a full range of Wills from the standard, to complex structures incorporating testamentary trusts, or life interests. If you have a more complex family arrangement, or assets like a farm that can't just be divided up, we can transfer those assets into a series of trusts. This can allow your family to retain the entire asset as a whole without it being sold off in parts.
Domestic Violence
Domestic Violence occurs in many forms, and has become the scourge of our modern society. If you have been charged with a domestic violence offence, or if you need help in obtaining a Protection Order, we can assist. In many cases an Order takes effect immediately, and may see people displaced from their homes the same day. Failure to appear at a hearing (usually 3-4 days after an initial incident), can result in an Order that lasts for five years, and restrict access to the family home and children. If you are the victim of domestic violence, we can move quickly to protect you and your family, and secure access to the family home and possessions. In many cases protection orders can favour those who move first, if you are in this situation, contact us immediately.
Traffic Matters
If you have been charged with a serious driving offence, your license may be at risk. This can affect your ability to work, and severely impact your lifestyle. Driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol, high speed offences, and dangerous driving carry substantial penalties, including imprisonment. In some cases, we may be able to assist you in obtaining a Restricted Work Licence, or a Special Hardship Licence. See our fixed price quotes so you know where you stand!
Court Appearances
We appear in all State and Federal Courts for the conduct of mentions, directions hearing, trials and appeals. Where necessary or efficient, we brief Counsel for serious or complex matters. If you have to go to Court, call us before, we could be the difference between a minor penalty, and a recorded conviction.
Aviation Matters
We have first hand specialist expertise in dealing with CASA, Aviation Insurers, ATSB, various Departments of Planning and Environment, and other players in the Aviation industry. If you are an operator, a pilot, injured at work, or in an accident, you can retain us to advise you as your matter unfolds, or to represent you in any ongoing court or administrative action.

Online Sales of Tobacco, Bongs, Vape & Smoking Products
If you are an online retailer you may require advice on what you can legally sell in different jurisdictions around Australia, or what you can import or export. We are able to review your site and corporate structure to provide you with advice on what you need to do to maintain a legal online presence. This ensures online traders are able to keep their sites operational and avoid suspension, not to mention possible fines from Corporate regulators or Police. We can also issue you with a letter of legislative compliance which is required for the provision of merchant services from a payment facilitator.
