FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, we regularly review and negotiate commercial leases for Penrith businesses. Commercial leases are complex documents with significant financial implications. We ensure you understand all terms, negotiate fair conditions, and protect your interests throughout the lease term.
While not legally required, proper legal setup from the start can save significant costs and complications later. We help you choose the right business structure, understand your obligations, and establish solid foundations for growth – often for less than the cost of fixing problems later.
We believe in transparent pricing with no surprises. During your initial consultation, we’ll provide a clear cost estimate based on your specific business needs. Many business matters can be handled on fixed-fee arrangements, giving you cost certainty. In the alternative, we offer competitive hourly rates. We always explain all costs upfront before you commit.
First, review the contract terms and document the breach. Often, a formal letter of demand can resolve the issue without court action. If that fails, we can advise on your options, including negotiation, mediation, or legal proceedings to recover losses and enforce your rights.
Companies offer limited liability protection and more professional credibility, but have greater compliance obligations. Sole traders are simpler to set up and operate, but offer no asset protection. We’ll assess your situation and recommend the most suitable structure for your goals and risk tolerance.
All employees should have written employment contracts that comply with Fair Work legislation and relevant awards. Even casual workers benefit from clear terms. Proper employment contracts protect both you and your employees by setting clear expectations and obligations.
