Every business has a story. These case studies highlight the challenges our clients faced, the strategies we developed together, and the measurable success that followed.
As Northern Beaches lawyers based in Brookvale, clients often ask practical questions about my background, service approach, and engagement process.
Whether you're seeking property legal services across NSW or commercial counsel throughout Australia, these responses provide insight into how I structure my practice and deliver legal support, both through direct consultation and remote services, for clients across the Northern Beaches, Sydney, NSW and Australia.
What types of legal matters do you handle as a property and commercial lawyer?
I specialise in three main areas across NSW and Australia. For property law, I handle residential and commercial property transactions, off-the-plan purchases, development site acquisitions, and conveyancing services throughout the Northern Beaches, Sydney and NSW. For commercial leasing, I work with both landlords and tenants on retail and commercial lease negotiations, renewals, and compliance matters for leases of NSW properties. For business law, I assist with business acquisitions and sales, commercial contract preparation, business structuring, and day-to-day legal requirements for small and medium business owners throughout Australia.Each matter receives my personal attention from start to finish.
How do your legal fees work compared to other lawyers?
I work on a structured, transparent fee basis that eliminates uncertainty. Before any work begins, you receive a comprehensive proposal detailing exactly what needs to be done, the timeline, and the total cost. This approach means no surprise bills or unclear scope. For property transactions, I work on fixed fees. For business matters, I structure fees based on the complexity and scope of work required. This transparency allows you to budget confidently and understand the value you're receiving for important legal decisions.
Can you help with urgent property transactions or business matters?
Yes, I understand that commercial opportunities and property settlements often operate on tight timelines. I structure my practice to provide responsive service when matters need expedited attention. Having worked in business management myself, I appreciate when things need to move quickly or when regulatory deadlines must be met. I maintain the thoroughness required for complex legal work while being responsive to your commercial timeline requirements.
What makes you different from other lawyers?
Several factors set my practice apart. First, you work directly with me throughout your entire matter - no admin, no juniors, no handoffs to other lawyers. Second, I bring both legal expertise and real business management experience from working in property development, so I understand commercial pressures and decision-making from your perspective. Third, I focus specifically on property and business law rather than trying to be everything to everyone. Finally, my Northern Beaches location means I'm accessible for local clients while serving business clients Australia-wide through efficient online processes.
How do I get started with your legal services?
To start with, you can book an initial consultation online or send an inquiry through this website. From there, depending on the type of matter and what you prefer, we can have a consultation or you can send me the details and information I need by email. If your matter is something I can assist with (and you are happy to proceed) where we discuss your legal requirements and determine whether we're a good fit for each other. If we decide to proceed, you'll receive a detailed proposal outlining the scope of work, timeline, and fees. You then have time to review everything before making a decision. Once you're ready to proceed, I handle all aspects of your matter personally, keeping you informed throughout the process.
