Since then, Morrison and Sawers have thrived through over 130 years of change, diversity and technology.
Morrison and Sawers Lawyers remain your local, reliable law firm, offering in-person, telephone or audiovisual appointments to suit all of your legal needs.
Morrison and Sawers Lawyers have several experienced lawyers who practice family law, litigation, contractual disputes, business and commercial law, wills and succession planning, estates and estate disputes, conveyancing and leases.
Morrison and Sawers Lawyers associate Jaime Rodrick is observing an increase in technological advancement and access to material, which, unfortunately, is accompanied by an increase in complex disputes.
“Often, it is difficult to see the value in paying your lawyer to prepare a written agreement where similar forms are often available online for free,” Ms Rodrick said.
“Or it seems just as easy and cost-effective to prepare a simple one-page agreement yourself.
“However, it is important to have carefully documented agreements in plain and easy-to-read language, which are essential to ensure a smooth transaction and minimise disputes.”
Morrison and Sawers Lawyers handle small and large commercial transactions daily and can manage complex disputes that may follow.
Ms Rodrick highlighted the importance of having a written agreement prepared by a lawyer.
“A written agreement prepared by Morrison and Sawers is suited to you and your circumstances and will provide you with the most protection possible in the event of a dispute,” she said.
“Contracts you find online are often broad and generic and do not always apply to your situation or cover everything they need to.
“What causes gaps in a written agreement is often what you don’t know or don’t think of.
“This is why having an experienced lawyer who can identify these gaps and avoid costly disputes is essential.
“With the court system being such a lengthy and expensive process, this is definitely something most people wish to avoid.
“At Morrison and Sawers, we value our client relationships and strive to make these transactions as easy and cost-effective as possible while guiding you through what can be a stressful process.”
