Mills Oakley Lawyers launches private advisory approach
Law firm Mills Oakley Lawyers has announced the launch of a private advisory team which will target private and family businesses as well as wealthy individuals.
The company announced this week that the new team would be launched by the former Federal Treasurer, Peter Costello.
The announcement said the service would be providing advice on corporate structuring, asset protection, estate planning, tax, business succession planning, co-ownership issues and business exits.
Commenting on the launch, Mills Oakley chief executive John Nerurker said it represented a milestone for the firm.
"It will provide a dedicated service for non-listed companies and individuals who seek the reassurance of dealing with a large commercial law practice, while enjoying deep subject matter expertise in areas that are particular to private and family businesses," he said.
