A buyer purchases a small business without getting a proper contract review done. Six months later, they discover the previous owner has been approaching their clients in breach of a restraint of trade clause, but because it was drafted poorly, it’s almost unenforceable. Or consider a business partnership where nothing was ever put in writing. When one partner decides to leave, there’s no agreed framework for valuing their share.
These situations are preventable, and that’s precisely what a business lawyer’s Sydney clients rely on us for. At GKE Lawyers, we work with private companies, listed companies, sole traders, and entrepreneurs across the Sydney CBD, North Sydney, and the broader commercial sector.

Whatever stage your business is at, GKE is ready to help.

A Sydney contractor finishes a major fitout job on time and to spec. The client refuses to pay, claiming defective work. The contractor has emails, site photos, and sign-off documents. However, without robust legal representation, recovering that money through the courts becomes a challenging task.
