SMR Legal is a well-respected regional law firm with a strong focus of engaging with the community, building relationships with clients and maintaining a clear focus on the areas of law that impact people’s everyday lives: family, property and business.

We have the capacity to support a broad range of clients across many areas of law, and to successfully finalise and resolve the majority of legal issues that arise in people’s lives. We value maintaining and building ongoing personalised relationships with our clients. SMR Legal’s diverse legal capabilities are underpinned by a collaborative team of lawyers, clerks and office staff. 

This year SMR Legal celebrated 10 years of providing outstanding legal services to the Goulburn Valley, predicated on the principled and collaborative ethos of two of its founding lawyers — Suzanna Sheed, a family law specialist, and Mary Stewart, a wills and estates specialist. 

SMR Legal also has an office in Melbourne and has established a successful online presence specialising in the removal of caveats with the domain caveatremoval.com.au

Our team can assist with the purchase of a new home, investment property or business, and prepare Wills and other personal documents. We also act for clients in litigation matters, including family law, commercial law and Estate disputes. We are multi-faceted and pride ourselves on being able to work with our clients across multiple areas of law.

Consulting a lawyer doesn’t automatically mean committing to a lengthy and costly legal battle. We are not litigators who take everything to Court and settle outside the door of the Court. We want to resolve things quickly and amicably so that clients have the best opportunity to move on with their lives.

SMR Legal is the first law firm in the Goulburn Valley to introduce a range of fixed fees for our legal services. Fixed fees are now the true benchmark for any law firm wanting to successfully operate in the current market.

Our team complete matters quickly, amicably and in the most cost-effective manner for our clients.

Contact SMR Legal today for all your legal matters. We value our clients.
