Friendly & Personal

Some lawyers can appear intimidating and unapproachable – hiding their lack of empathy & people-skills behind big words. We’re not like that. We work hard to ensure that you are fully-informed, relaxed and comfortable with our service.

Excellent Value & Affordable

We offer a range of options and packages, from basic to advanced, which are surprisingly affordable and an excellent investment for the future of yourself, your family and your assets.

Local & Dependable

We are the oldest law firm in South Australia – established 1848 – and are still family owned and operated after 3 generations. A business does not survive for 167 years unless it does a lot of things right. We are proud to have helped generations of South Australian families.

Quality Solutions

The modern integrated estate planning solutions we prepare for you are customised for your individual circumstances. You & your family deserve the peace-of-mind that comes with our modern integrated Estate Planning solutions.

Specialist Expertise

Lots of lawyers “dabble” in many areas of law, and will “have a go” at making your Will. But if you pay peanuts, you’re very likely to get monkeys! This is a specialised area of law, and we are one of the very few law firms that truly specialises in Wills & Estates.

Performance & Reputation

We have the expertise, the experience and the track record to back up our claims. Have a look at our many testimonials from happy & satisfied clients, or check out our online reviews.

Radio interview with Rod Genders

“How to stop the Government giving away your assets after you die and charging a fortune to do it”

Rod Genders

With all the recent talk about Australia’s ageing population, changes to superannuation and media speculation about the possible return of death duties, this timely interview reveals senior legal specialist Rod Genders from the oldest law firm in South Australia dishing the dirt on:

how estate companies make their fortunes from “free” Wills
how to save your family over $10,000 when they administer your deceased estate
how to avoid Government bureaucrats taking control of your finances, accommodation, health & medical decisions
plus much more.

This hard-hitting 45 minute radio interview tells the real truth about how to plan for the future, to protect yourself, your family and your assets.

My experience with Genders and Partners has been nothing short of brilliant. Friendly and experienced this team met and surpassed my needs. A full Estate Planning package was created in less than a week. The turnaround time was critical as I faced hospitalisation the following week. Most notably Rod Genders took the time to meet with each individual given power to make decisions on my behalf, which they and I found to be very reassuring.

If you are looking for a quality Estate Planning Attorney, someone you can trust to point you in the right direction and who will ensure your best interests are served, then I would highly recommend Genders and Partners to you. Thanks Rod and Team
