Running a life or a business means facing legal questions at every turn. GKE Lawyers brings strength across multiple disciplines. We’re not specialists in just one corner of the law; we’re your trusted advisors across the board.
Property law is what we’re known for. It’s where our expertise shines. The NSW Registrar General maintains Conveyancing Rules under Section 12E of the Real Property Act 1900, which govern how property transactions are conducted. We work within these frameworks every day.
Our property lawyers handle residential purchases, investment property acquisitions, and commercial real estate transactions across Sydney. Recent strata law reforms in 2025 have introduced new statutory duties for committee members and enhanced disclosure requirements for embedded networks. We stay current on these changes. Local council processes, zoning issues, development applications: we understand how Sydney’s property market operates.
Transparency matters. You’ll know our costs upfront. We communicate clearly at every stage, from contract review to settlement. Whether you’re a first-time homeowner, a property investor, or a developer, you get personal service tailored to your situation.
Small to mid-sized businesses face unique challenges. Contract disputes. Lease negotiations. Compliance questions. Our commercial lawyers’ Sydney team provides practical solutions. Business contracts can be verbal or written, but written commercial agreements are much easier to prove and help mitigate disputes.
Sydney’s commercial landscape moves fast. From 1 July 2025, unfair contract term laws apply to standard form contracts with owners’ corporations and associations. We help you navigate these regulations. NSW’s Restraints of Trade Act 1976 allows courts to reduce unreasonable restraint clauses to what is considered reasonable based on geographical area, time period, and the person’s former position.
Risk management starts with proactive legal advice. We review your contracts before you sign them, not after problems emerge. Whether it’s structuring a new venture, negotiating commercial leases, or resolving shareholder disputes, we’re your local commercial law firm with the expertise Sydney businesses need.
Family law Sydney matters require both legal expertise and genuine empathy. The Family Law Amendment Act 2023 removed the presumption of equal shared parental responsibility, introducing a more flexible, child-centric approach effective from 6 May 2024. We guide clients through this reformed framework.
Under updated property settlement provisions effective from 10 June 2025, courts must first consider whether it is just and equitable to make any order adjusting parties’ property interests. The process includes divorce proceedings, parenting arrangements, and property division. The definition of family violence has been expanded to include economic and financial abuse, such as denying financial autonomy or access to money.
We provide confidential, step-by-step guidance. We don’t see you as another file number; you’re a person facing difficult decisions. Our family law lawyers combine technical knowledge with compassionate representation. We explain your options clearly and pursue practical outcomes that protect your interests and your children’s wellbeing.

We serve clients across Sydney and throughout New South Wales. Under NSW’s Torrens system, we ensure property transactions comply with state-guaranteed title registration requirements.
Alternative dispute resolution (ADR) describes a range of processes where an impartial practitioner helps people resolve disputes. ADR methods include mediation, conciliation, and arbitration. ADR can be quicker, cheaper, more flexible, less stressful, and more confidential than court proceedings.
The Family Law Amendment Act 2024 introduced significant reforms effective from 10 June 2025, including changes to property settlement frameworks and an expanded definition of family violence to include economic and financial abuse. Earlier reforms in 2024 removed the presumption of equal shared parental responsibility and introduced new best interests factors for children. Couples must still be separated for a minimum of 12 months and one day before applying for divorce. Our family lawyers stay current on these changes and can explain how they affect your situation.
While not legally required, engaging a property lawyer is strongly recommended. Professional legal advice protects your interests, identifies potential issues, and ensures the transaction complies with NSW legislation. Mistakes in property purchases can be costly and difficult to rectify.
The conveyancing timeline typically ranges from 4 to 6 weeks for straightforward residential transactions, though complex matters may take longer. We work efficiently to meet settlement deadlines while ensuring all legal requirements are satisfied.
