Stokes Lawyers practise extensively in business and commercial law.  We usually meet our clients as they are experience a key lifecycle event - such as establishing, buying a business, restructuring or planning for business succession – and maintain the relationship to assist with further commercial law needs as required.

We work collaboratively with your existing accountants, financial planners and other professionals to achieve results for you.  We regularly receive positive feedback for our accessibility, proactive and constructive approach and contribution to successful outcomes.

In the entrepreneurial world, family businesses like yours are one of the very fast-growing companies that this economy is building; it is the foundation of indeed the success of the industry.

Our family business clients include micro-businesses, smaller domestic companies, international businesses and even startups across a variety of industry sectors. Our group of business lawyers know the law, but they also guided by the ethics and context of the family, the commercial reality of the business and how the members interact.  This enables a greater effectiveness in achieving results that matter to the business.
