Wills, Estates & Succession Planning

You’ve worked hard to build and protect your assets. Safeguarding them for the people you care about is fundamental to creating the future.

Coulter Roache have been APCO's legal partners now for over ten years. Over that time we have required corporate, commercial, property and workplace advice. We have built a strong relationship with the firm over the years and really appreciate the support we have received. The team responds quickly and effectively when APCO has required complex advice to issues that arise in business today. No matter how complex the matter, they provide me with strong commercial solutions that work for our business.

The lawyers with the conduct of my matter considered every contingency throughout the process to ensure that I was protected. I felt confident that my interests were protected. It was great to work with lawyers who are not only skilled but also approachable and easy to deal with.

Helen, I wanted to thank you for all you have done to help Mum this year in executing our Aunt's Estate. As you know it has been a very emotional process for her (and for all of us) and you have always been very respectful, helpful and considerate in all your dealings with her.

Satbir and the team at Coulter Roache did an excellent job in handling my financial separation case. Satbir gave me a realistic view of what I can hope to achieve before we started and was very accurate. I was amazed at how smooth he made the whole process. In the end we got my request over the line and all parties were satisfied.
