A contract isn't just paperwork, it's a legally binding agreement that can affect your rights, obligations and financial future.

Before signing any contract, ask yourself three simple questions:
• Do I understand every clause?
• Are my interests adequately protected?
• What happens if something goes wrong?

If you're unsure of any answer, it's worth obtaining legal advice before committing.

Whether you're entering a commercial agreement, signing a construction contract or purchasing property, understanding the document before you sign is almost always easier than resolving a dispute afterwards.

Many people wait until a legal issue becomes urgent before seeking advice.

In reality, obtaining legal guidance early often provides more options, greater certainty and a clearer path forward.

Whether you're buying property, growing a business, navigating a family law matter or planning your estate, early legal advice can help identify risks, answer important questions and support informed decision-making before problems escalate.

At Maguire & McInerney Lawyers, we believe practical legal advice should give clients confidence, not confusion.

Whatever your circumstances, our experienced team is here to help you understand your options and move forward with clarity.

Estate planning isn't only about protecting your assets, it's about making important decisions before your family has to make them for you.

Having an up-to-date Will and appropriate legal documents in place can provide clarity during what is often an emotional and challenging time. It helps ensure your wishes are understood and can reduce uncertainty for the people you care about most.

Planning ahead isn't about expecting the worst. It's about giving yourself and your loved ones confidence that everything has been considered.

Many business owners establish a company believing it completely protects their personal assets.

While a company structure provides important protections, directors still have significant legal responsibilities under Australian law.

Seeking legal advice early is often far simpler and more cost-effective than responding after a dispute or regulatory issue develops.

Our Business & Company Law team works with businesses throughout the Illawarra to provide practical legal guidance at every stage of growth.

Creating a Will is an important first step, but keeping it up to date is just as important.

Major life events such as marriage, divorce, purchasing property, welcoming children or grandchildren, or changes to your financial circumstances can all affect whether your Will still reflects your wishes.

Reviewing your estate planning regularly helps ensure your assets are distributed according to your intentions and can reduce uncertainty for your loved ones in the future.

Estate planning isn't only about preparing for later in life. It's about giving yourself confidence that important decisions have already been made.

At Maguire & McInerney Lawyers, we help individuals and families across the Illawarra prepare and review estate planning documents that provide clarity and peace of mind.

WHAT'S CHANGING IN OCTOBER 2026? ⚖️

October brings a number of legal changes in NSW that could affect workers, businesses, young people and healthcare providers.

Here are a few worth knowing about 👇

đź’ł BUSINESS OWNERS

October also brings changes to card payment surcharges, with Visa, Mastercard and eftpos moving to no-surcharge rules from 1 October 2026.

If your business currently adds a card surcharge, it's worth checking your payment arrangements and pricing now.

🚨 CRIMINAL LAW & YOUNG PEOPLE

A temporary NSW bail provision applying to certain 14–17 year olds charged with specified serious offences while already on bail is scheduled to be repealed on 1 October 2026.

This doesn't mean young people automatically get bail — the ordinary bail laws continue to apply — but the additional temporary restriction will end.

🏥 CHILD SAFETY

From 1 October, eligible private health facilities in NSW that provide services to children will come under the Reportable Conduct Scheme and Child Safe Scheme.

This means new obligations around child-safe practices, reporting and responding to certain allegations involving children.

đź‘· WORKERS COMPENSATION

From 1 October, the test for certain medical treatment and domestic assistance under workers compensation changes.

The test will move from “reasonably necessary” to “reasonable and necessary”.

There are also new rules around commutations - where a workers compensation claim can be settled for a single lump sum. Once a commutation is accepted and paid, the worker generally has no further entitlement to payments for that injury, including weekly payments and medical expenses.

The law doesn't stand still - and neither should your legal documents, policies or business practices.

If you're unsure how these changes affect you, speak to a lawyer.
