The firm has 11-50 employees and serves four primary segments: small-to-medium businesses, families, professionals and investors, and retirees across the Sydney North Shore and broader NSW market. No proprietary technology platform is disclosed; the firm relies on third-party integrations including Morningstar and Sustainalytics for ESG research, CoreLogic/RPData for property valuation, and PLAN Australia for mortgage aggregation. The business model is fee-for-service professional services with engagement-based pricing, multi-year retainer arrangements, and revenue generated across tax compliance, transactional legal work, broking commissions/fees, and previously wealth management fees. Client acquisition is relationship-led, driven by referrals, community involvement (Balmoral Swim for Cancer, Mercy Ships Australia, NSW Cancer Council, Raise Foundation, Australian Marist Centre for Overseas Aid), content marketing through the firm blog, and a digital self-serve Online Estate Planning tool launched in June 2019.
