Conveyancing
Whether it is your home, business premises or an investment, buying or selling a property is one of the most important and expensive transactions you will make in your lifetime. Experience shows that there is no such thing as a “standard conveyance”.
Our lawyers have represented hundreds of buyers and sellers over the past decade and have also acted for some of Australia’s largest banks and lenders.
This dual-experience gives us (and our clients) a distinct and competitive advantage because, not only do we have all the expertise and experience to protect your rights and interests as part of the buying or selling journey – we also have contacts at most lenders’ legal and settlement teams and have ‘insider knowledge’ on their common pain points. This allows us to navigate common issues to ensure a smooth and efficient settlement process.
We pride ourselves on providing premium legal services that are accessible to all Australians. For this reason, we have invested in a secure document exchange, which allows us to securely share documents and information with you about your purchase or sale.
Superannuation
The team at Hindsight Legal Advisers are industry experts that have the expertise and experience to help you navigate the complex regulatory requirements that apply to setting up and maintaining a compliant self-managed superannuation fund (SMSF) under the Superannuation Industries Act 1993 (SIS Act).
Our lawyers have represented many SMSFs over the past decade and have also acted for some of Australia’s largest banks and lenders providing SMSF loans. This dual experience gives us (and our clients) a distinct competitive advantage because not only do we have the expertise and experience to ensure SMSF set-up is completed correctly, we also understand the unique policy requirements of large banks and lenders when financing SMSF loans.
Our years of experience and thorough understanding of both superannuation and property laws mean we’re uniquely equipped to advise SMSFs on all aspects of SIS Act compliance, handle the nuances of setting up SMSF Trust Deeds and Property Trust Deeds and assist with the financing requirements associated with purchasing property using your SMSF.
Our cost-effective, fixed-fee SMSF services provide you with certainty, while our dedicated team of expert SMSF lawyers provide you with the comfort of meticulous due diligence and rapid turnaround times.

Estate Planning
Navigating the complexities of wills and estate laws in Australia can be challenging, particularly for those unfamiliar with the legal requirements. At Hindsight Legal Advisers, we assist clients in preparing comprehensive estate plans by taking the time to understand their personal circumstances and wishes for the future administration of their estates. Our goal is to ensure that these intentions are clearly and accurately reflected in all estate planning documents, providing peace of mind for both clients and their families.
We are committed to delivering high-quality, accessible services in the areas of wills, probate, and estate administration. Our team works closely with clients, guiding them through each step of the process to ensure their estate is managed according to their wishes.
Wills and Estates
Our lawyers regularly draft Wills – both simple and complex. A key focus for our team is to ensure your assets are dealt with in accordance with your wishes. By including clear drafting, we are also able to reduce the risk of another person making a claim against your property.
Probate
Applying for Probate: We can help guide your executors through the Probate process to ensure your estate is administered correctly and your loved ones are taken care of.
Applying for Letters of Administration: Sometimes a valid Will is not available. Where this occurs, Letters of Administration will need to be applied for. We can help with this application to allow the appropriate management and distribution of assets where no valid Will is available
Power of Attorney
We can assist with preparing the necessary documents for you to appoint an Attorney or an Enduring Attorney in the event you wish to authorise someone to make legal and financial decisions on your behalf.
Guardianship
We can assist with preparing the necessary documents for you to appoint an Enduring Guardian to allow another person to make lifestyle decisions on your behalf when you no longer have the capacity
