Mum Lawyer - Making Legals Simple for Mums in Small Business

About Us

We understand Mums

We understand the pressures that come with being a Mum and running a small business. We know:

Your time is precious, and you need flexibility around your children and work;
You need someone who gets your business and speaks your language;
You need someone who believes in your business goals and wants you to succeed; and
You work best when you are not worried about unnecessary legal risks.

As Mum lawyers, specialising in small business law we help simplify your legals and support your business to thrive. We have embraced online legal technology which means that we can work flexibly, and help give you peace of mind.

We know the law

We have an intimate knowledge of the types of legal issues you may come across. We have:

A wealth of legal experience gained from working at some of the worlds top law firms and companies;
Worked alongside small businesses for many years at the start-up stage, whilst they have grown, and with some as they have gone global or developed a franchising model; and
Helped many different types of solopreneurs and small businesses with some of the more unusual ones being a yacht delivery business, a kids archery tag business, and speed dating event organisation.

As Mum lawyers we believe that small business is “the new black” and that Mumpreneurs are the future.

What Mums are Saying

The Mumpreneur Lawyer gave me the peace of mind I needed in putting my documents in order. She was thorough and professional while also being sensitive to the issues at hand. As a mother she understood the importance of the topic and explained details of the legal requirements in a way that was easy to understand. The Mumpreneur Lawyer provides a unique high level of professionalism mixed with personal sensitivity.

The Mumpreneur Lawyer represented me in an intellectual property matter and provided me with the right advice and guidance through an unfamiliar process. She is a highly skilled negotiator and was easy to communicate with. The Mumpreneur Lawyer really worked hard to get the best agreement for me and I would not have achieved this result without her. I was very happy with the outcome and would definitely recommend her services.

It has been great working with The Mumpreneur Lawyer and such a relief to know we have our very own go-to person for all of our legal requirements. Her legal knowledge and experience has also opened our eyes to many aspects of our business that we had no idea about which has been very helpful in informing our decision making. Thank you!

Fantastic, super helpful and tailored for me. I’d been considering getting legal agreements drawn up for a while, but got put off by scary lawyers, always asking heaps for money and not offering very much in return. However, I have been fantastically happy with the service I have received from The Mumpreneur Lawyer. Everything has been simple to complete, and where I don’t know the answers it has been an easy gentle process to find out what is needed and get the information to send back to complete the agreements. I’m very happy to recommend this service.

The Mumpreneur Lawyer was beyond amazing helping us through a complex and challenging situation. She was fantastic, knowledgeable and explained everything so clearly. I would highly recommend her.
