Antunes Lawyers

What Antunes Lawyers does

Antunes Lawyers is a privately held, full-service law firm headquartered in North Sydney, New South Wales, Australia, serving individuals, families, small and mid-sized businesses, and SMSF trustees. The firm operates across 12 core practice areas, including family law, commercial litigation, corporate and commercial, disputes and litigation, employment and workplace relations, intellectual property, lending and borrowing, property/planning/development, tax and superannuation, trusts and asset protection, wills and estates, and bankruptcy/insolvency. A recent specialised offering, the 'Lemon Car Crusade' consumer claims service led by Special Counsel Zak Tayyar, has reported a 100% success rate.

The firm is led by Senior Partner Margaret Antunes and Partner Tim Arvanitis, supported by a team of special counsel, senior associates, associates, lawyers, a senior licensed conveyancer, and administrative staff. Service delivery is relationship-driven, with go-to-market relying on personal referrals, direct website enquiries, phone, and in-person consultations at the single North Sydney office. Revenue is generated through professional services billed at hourly rates or fixed fees per matter, with pricing determined case-by-case following initial consultations; no SaaS, platform, or subscription revenue exists.

There is no evidence of external capital, M&A activity, or geographic expansion beyond the single headquarters. Marketing is primarily organic, comprising a content blog covering all practice areas, an active LinkedIn and Facebook presence, and SEO-driven website traffic. The firm uses standard legal practice technology and document management systems and discloses no proprietary technology, AI/ML capabilities, integrations, or APIs. Customer concentration is low, with a granular base of individual and SMB clients and long-tenured relationships (20+ years) forming the core of recurring business.
