Evolution Lawyers

Looking to buy or sell a business?

We specialise in all legal aspects of business sale and purchase.

Business Sale & Purchase

If you are considering buying or selling a business (or part of it), we can help with the legal side of the transaction to make sure everything goes as smoothly as possible. Our commercial lawyers are skilled at dealing with the issues and challenges that can arise during all stages of the business sale and purchase process, from initial due diligence to settlement and beyond. Whether you are selling or buying, and no matter if the business is small or large, we can help protect your interests, minimise risk, and reduce stress by providing pragmatic and cost-effective legal advice.

Business Sale & Purchase

Get the contract reviewed before you sign 


We always recommend our clients have business sale and purchase contracts reviewed by a lawyer before signing. As part of this process, we can either review an agreement that has already been prepared, for example by a business broker acting for the vendor, or prepare an agreement from scratch to suit the particular transaction.  

Being involved at this early stage, or even earlier to assist with due diligence and negotiation, can help to ensure our clients are agreeing terms, conditions, warranties, and undertakings that are as favourable as possible.  It also reduces the likelihood of surprises in the fine print.   

Working with experts  


We often work with business brokers, chartered accountants, and other professional advisers as part of the sale and purchase process. Our pragmatic approach to dealing with these advisers minimises the risk of legal impediments, while ensuring our clients receive the specialist advice they need, particularly relating to taxation.

I HIGHLY recommend Evolution Lawyers. Having owned property for many years with two of my best mates it came time to sell. Evolution Lawyers guided us through our first ever sale to a third party. They also helped us through the process of property sales between friends and subsequently helped me personally with the purchase of my own home. With the complex situation of winding up our little property company and the (supposed) need for me to get bridging finance to get it all done, it was Thomas who, on a hunch, went the extra mile by reaching out to an accountant friend to discover and inform us that there was a way to wind the company up without the need for bridging finance. This saved me personally $15,000 - $20,000 by not needing the bridging finance. I cannot be more grateful for this on top of the already professional and exceptional service. Great work by Thomas, George and all the team. Highly recommend!

My family recently had the pleasure of working with Evolution Lawyers for the refinance of their mortgage, and we cannot praise them enough for their exceptional service and professionalism throughout the entire process. From the very first interaction, it was evident that Evolution Lawyers truly cares about their clients. Their team was friendly and approachable. The documentation process was streamlined and hassle-free, thanks to the efficiency and expertise of the Evolution Lawyers team. They guided us step-by-step through gathering and organizing the necessary documents, making sure that nothing was overlooked. Their attention to detail and thoroughness gave us confidence that everything was handled meticulously. I highly recommend Evolution Lawyers to anyone seeking assistance with mortgage refinance or any legal matters related to real estate. Their exceptional service, professionalism, and dedication to their clients set them apart. Thanks to their support, the mortgage refinance was a stress-free and positive experience. We are truly grateful for their guidance and would not hesitate to engage their services again in the future.

Thomas Bloy is fantastic. Very helpful and knowledgeable. I came to him via a recommendation and he delivered an exceptional consult. A firm with ethics that is not looking to bill you for stuff you can do yourself.

My partner and I have recently had a lot of dealings with lawyers and we were at the end of our tether with them. Thank goodness for Evolution Lawyers! By far Evolution Lawyers was the absolute best to deal with. They were helpful and efficient and gave us useful and timely advice, we truly felt that they we working with us rather than just trying to rack up their timesheet. We will most definitely use them again without a second thought. It's such a relief to finally find a law firm we can depend on. Thank you George, Georgia and Thomas!
