Protect what matters most - with a plan that fits your family.
Wills, testamentary trusts, enduring powers of attorney, and business succession - drafted with care, explained in plain English, and quoted at a fixed fee before you commit.
Estate planning shouldn't feel confusing or rushed.
Three common situations that bring families to Rosewood Succession.
You don't have a will - or yours is out of date
Marriage, divorce, children, new property, a business - any of these changes your will. Most Australians' plans are years behind their circumstances.
Blended families, business, or vulnerable beneficiaries
A straightforward will isn't enough. Testamentary trusts, rights of residence, and protective clauses need someone who handles these every day.
Elderly parents, ageing partners, or NDIS planning
EPAs, ACDs, and special disability trusts take thought. Home visits across Adelaide mean we sit with you or your family at the kitchen table.
Succession law, focused exclusively.
Every matter we take on is in succession, estate, or trust law. It's the only kind of work we do - which means every client benefits from deep experience in the specific issue in front of them.
Every client deals with Sam. No paralegals, no rotating associates.
Sam founded Rosewood Succession Solicitors after practising at TGB - one of Adelaide's most respected firms - because he wanted to offer the kind of personal attention a sole-principal practice can genuinely provide.
The result: every matter is handled start to finish by the same person, responses are personal, and fees reflect the efficiency of a focused practice rather than a generalist firm doing succession work on the side.
Three steps to protected.
We make the process as simple as we can without glossing over what matters.
Book a chat
A free 20-minute call so Sam understands your situation and you can see if we're a good fit. No obligation.
Plan your documents
We prepare the draft documents based on your circumstances, with a fixed-fee quote you agree to before we start drafting.
Sign and protected
Review the drafts with Sam, make changes, sign with witnesses. Leave with documents that do what you need them to do.
Sam walked us through our wills and testamentary trusts without any of the legal jargon I'd expected. We left the meeting feeling like we finally understood what we were signing.
A succession plan for everything you've built.
Most small business succession plans exist as a conversation that never got written down. We turn it into proper documents - buy-sell agreements, shareholder agreements, business transfer clauses in your will, and a roadmap that coordinates with your accountant.
- Buy-sell agreements funded by insurance
- Shareholder agreements with deadlock and exit clauses
- Family business succession across generations
- Business transfer clauses inside your will
