Hello fellow Searchers! I’m looking to engage a lawyer to assist with legal due diligence for an SME acquisition. Ideally, we'd like to work with a small to mid-tier firm in Sydney (location not critical) that offers reasonable rates and has experience in SME transactions. Any advice on what fee range I should typically expect for this type of engagement? If anyone has any recommendations for lawyers or firms you’ve worked with previously, I’d greatly appreciate your suggestions. Tino.

Joanna Oakey and the team at Aspect Legal are excellent. https://www.aspectlegal.com.au/ redacted We refer them a lot of business and have done over the past 6-7 years.

I used Matthew Clark from Argus Lawyers to help negotiate transaction docs and he was good and reasonably priced, they have presence in Melbourne and Sydney. Didn’t use them for DD as I did it myself but they do that as well
