A corporate law firm that’s always in your corner

Whether you’re buying, selling, structuring or investing in your business, let us do the heavy lifting so you don’t have to. 

Corporate transactions can be complex and often touch all corners of your business. You may need to consider the impact of a deal on employees, your intellectual property and brand, and your customer and supplier arrangements.

We’ll help you work through all outcomes, and assemble a stellar team of solicitors who’ll support you to reach them. We can help you:

A legal team that’s handpicked for you

When we work together, you’ll have your own dedicated corporate lawyer, and support from our colleagues in other areas of business law such as commercial, intellectual property and employment when you need it. 

If, for example, employee shareholders are joining or leaving the business, we’ll bring in our corporate and employment lawyers to support you through the changes.

With us, you can feel reassured that every legal detail in relation to your business is taken care of.

The work was on time and on budget

“The transaction required a full understanding of the deal and a collaborative approach. Murrell Associates delivered on both.”

Paul Murray, Managing Director, M-Tech
