Welcome to Smallwoods Lawyers

 

Our experienced solicitors and support staff are dedicated to providing high-quality legal services to family and commercial clients.

Our principal areas of practice include:

We aim to provide our legal services promptly, efficiently and cost effectively.

Richard Smallwood started the legal practice now called Smallwoods in 1976 after working in the Sydney CBD with firms mainly in the areas of finance, commercial property, business and company law and family law.

Richard established the law practice on the Northern Beaches of Sydney and in 2009 moved the practice to new modern premises in Brookvale which provides more convenient access for clients. Richard has kept the legal practice at a small boutique level to ensure that personal attention is provided to clients by experienced solicitors to ensure legal services are delivered in a cost effective and practical way.

Clients of Smallwoods benefit from Richard’s experience in handling work in these areas for over 35 years as well as holding a Diploma in financial planning.

Most of Smallwood’s legal work comes from referrals from existing clients and personal contacts, but the practice is willing to assist new clients who appreciate the quality and prompt attention their legal problems deserve and will receive at Smallwoods.

Richard is now assisted in the legal practice in the areas of family law, conveyancing/property law, company/small business law, wills and estate planning as well as local government law by two experienced senior solicitors, Elizabeth Campbell and Lynette McDermott. Both Elizabeth and Lynette have gained extensive experience in their fields with Sydney CBD firms prior to joining Smallwoods.

Elizabeth assists mainly in the areas of Conveyancing, Finance Law and Business Law.

Lynette assists mainly in the areas of Family Law and Wills and Estate Planning as well as looking after the administration of deceased estates and probate matters.

Although the solicitors at Smallwoods concentrate on particular fields of law, all solicitors at Smallwoods are capable of undertaking work in all areas of the law undertaken by the firm.

 

 
 
Service overview
 

- Business Law
Our lawyers in the course of advising on buying or selling a business will carefully consider your aims and objectives and will advise you on the implications of capital gains and GST issues which need to be carefully examined.

- Family Law
In our experience, clients needing advice on general Family Law, Divorce Law and De facto Law issues require their solicitors to not only have the requisite knowledge of these areas of the law, but also the skills to negotiate outcomes on their behalf.

- Commercial & Residential Conveyancing & Property Law.
Our solicitors have over 50 years of experience in conveyancing from the first homebuyer to seasoned developers. Some believe conveyancing has been reduced to an administrative task, not requiring a solicitor or lawyer.

- Estate Planning, Wills & Deceased Estates.
With changes to Superannuation Laws, mixed families from new relationships and for other reasons, drafting Wills and planning your estate upon death or incapacity has assumed more importance in recent years.

- Local Government Law
We can provide you with advice in respect of the preparation of Development Applications and appearance before Local Government panels and if required, appealing against the decisions of Council to review panels and the Land and Environment Court.
