We are a full-service commercial law firm with deep expertise across our principal areas of commercial practice. Our lawyers combine technical excellence with commercial judgment, helping our clients navigate complex legal issues, manage risk, and seize opportunity.
Our clients range from private individuals and family businesses to major corporations, property developers, professional service firms, not-for-profit organisations, and public sector entities. Regardless of size, every client benefits from the same commitment to strategic advice, responsive service, and practical solutions.
We are known for taking a constructive and commercially focused approach. We focus on understanding your objectives, identifying the most efficient and effective strategy, and delivering outcomes that support your long-term success.
While our history spans more than a century, our approach is firmly contemporary. We are frequently engaged to assist with urgent and complex matters, because our clients value our responsiveness, commercial focus, and ability to move quickly when circumstances demand it.
We do not get in the way. We show you the way.
Our longevity is a reflection of the trust our clients place in us and the results we achieve on their behalf. We have acted in many significant commercial matters and continue to deliver high-quality legal services across a broad range of industries and sectors.
At CCK, we combine the capability and experience of a leading commercial law firm, with the personal attention and commitment that our clients value. We are proud of our heritage, confident in our capabilities, and focused on helping our clients succeed.
Extra mile.
Mergers, Acquisitions & Commercial transactions
We recognise the need to provide clear and accurate commercial and taxation advice in relation to all aspects of mergers and acquisitions. We work with our clients at the outset to map out all of the issues that may need to be addressed throughout the whole transaction, rather than merely addressing problems as they arise. We look towards the future operation of your business.
Construction, engineering &
technology
We work extensively in the construction and engineering industries. We understand the needs of a technical field. We cover the full range of services that businesses in the industry may require including drafting and reviewing contracts, assisting in tenders and negotiation, commercialising ideas and advising on management of claims.
commercial dispute Resolution, insurance & Insolvency
We understand that, in business, it is better to avoid a dispute than to win a dispute. Quick results are vital. Some types of business dealings have a high chance of leading to dispute. Some types of claims are more likely to be contentious. Clear advice and strategy up front can make a dispute less likely. We can help you to avoid, manage or resolve a problem.
Tax advisory & Dispute resolution
We offer practical and tailored solutions to complex tax issues. We are recognised as being active in the tax community. We can advise on the implementation and tax consequences of significant or high-profile acquisitions and restructures, as well as on personal or corporate tax assessments. We offer a range of services for individuals, business, not for profit entities and corporations.
Property
We have an outstanding track record in relation to property transactions and advice. We act for a range of Australian and overseas clients who have significant property investments in South Australia and throughout Australia. We undertake the conveyance of property as well as leasing and all manner of other property transactions.
Private Legal Services &
Estate planning
We offer a range of services to the private legal needs of business people and wealthy individuals and their families. We work closely with financial planners and accountants to manage personal structuring, wills and estate planning, trusts and superannuation.
