We anticipate and adapt to change, and help push the boundaries of what can be done. Johnston Withers Lawyers care about what happens here in South Australia; not just as lawyers, but also as members of the community.
Family matters can be stressful at the best of times, let alone when the law is involved. If you’re experiencing divorce, child custody issues or family disputes, we’re here to listen and help.
If you’ve been hurt or suffered injuries as a result of someone else’s actions or negligence, talk to us about seeking damages from the people or organisation responsible.
Whether you need help making a will, managing a deceased estate or guidance challenging a will, we’ll make sure your assets and estate are properly looked after when you die.
Everyone deserves to feel safe and secure at work. If you’ve experienced discrimination, an unfair dismissal or other work-related disputes, we’re here to provide expert, trusted advice.
We act for companies and individuals with respect to general commercial matters and assist with financial issues including mortgage and loan origination, property advice and asset structuring, including for farmers.
From first homes and family farms to commercial leases and business contracts, our experienced team is here to help with comprehensive conveyancing services.
What others say about you matters. If you’ve experienced reputational damage as a result of defamatory comments or if you need to defend a defamation claim, our solicitors can help.
We understand that being charged with an offence of any kind can be distressing, regardless of the seriousness of the allegation. Our expert criminal law team is here to advocate for you.
Our litigation lawyers are here to help with all kinds of dispute resolution matters, from contested estates and trust litigation to intellectual property disputes and debt recovery.
From the arid plains above the mid-North and the rolling hills of the Clare Valley to the city streets of Adelaide, we’re committed to providing every community in our great state with expert legal advice.
If you can’t visit one of our seven locations in person, talk to us about meeting online or in a location that works for you.
