What KPW Lawyers can help you with and what is Commercial law?

We are proud to offer a breadth of legal services across the Riverina in NSW from Griffith to Wagga and regional Victoria, covering Wodonga, Wangaratta and beyond. We can help individuals, small business owners and commercial enterprises with:

Commercial Litigation 

We offer a comprehensive commercial litigation service, covering all aspects of dispute resolution including mediation, arbitration and court proceedings. Our lawyers understand a wide range of legal areas including contract law, construction law, breach of duty claims and torts including defamation and actions against the state for assaults, battery, false imprisonment and malicious prosecutions by state and federal police and other government authorities.

Conveyancing

For the individual, we understand that buying or selling property is a significant financial and often emotive process. We help give our clients clarity and comprehensive advice and help take the stress out of this complex process. We can also assist with commercial sales, purchases and large scale developments as we have extensive experience in helping businesses navigate all of the opportunities and challenges that pertain to such transactions.

Employment Law

We are well versed in workplace discrimination, unfair dismissal, employment contracts and this entire sphere of law and help our clients understand their rights and entitlements as an employee or employer – a vital part of maintaining an efficient and effective workplace.

Estate Planning 

We help our clients achieve peace of mind which is what this process is ultimately designed for. We help you set up all the necessary structures in your personal life and/or business to ensure your assets are distributed and dealt with in the manner that you wish. This process is rooted in supporting your beneficiaries according to your personal wishes. In doing so, you can avoid difficulties and disagreements between the parties linked to your Estate.

Wills and Contested Wills

We recommend that all our clients have a Will. This helps you control how your Estate is distributed when you pass away, how you are cared for in the later stages of your life and outlines the care for the children you have responsibility for. We can guide you through this process step by step. Failing to prepare a Will can leave important decisions about your Estate and loved ones in the hands of others and cause unnecessary stress for your family.

Succession Planning 

We support our clients with the creation of a strategy for passing on leadership roles within business entities as and when they become vacant. This essential planning stage helps our clients prepare for the future.

Debt Recovery

We support our clients through the process to recover debts owed from suppliers, customers, or other businesses. We will efficiently work with you to maximise your recovery, taking care of the entire debt recovery process from start to finish. We support our clients through taking away the worry and stress so you can focus on running your business.
