Finance Law Services

When significant transactions or financing arrangements require legal certainty, the quality of your documentation determines how protected you are. Our lawyers work closely alongside Fortuna's accounting and mortgage broking team to ensure legal and financial structures are aligned.

Loan agreements: clearly drafted facility letters and loan documentation for borrowers and lenders.

Security agreements: mortgages and general security agreements properly structured and documented.

PPSR registrations: Personal Property Securities Register registrations managed and perfected.

Guarantees and indemnities: personal and corporate guarantees drafted and explained clearly.

Refinancing support: discharge of existing security and preparation of new arrangements managed end to end.

Finance Documents That Actually Protect You

Poorly drafted finance documents, missing security registrations, or inadequate guarantee provisions can leave lenders exposed and borrowers facing obligations they did not anticipate. We ensure the legal structure of your financing arrangements is complete, correct, and enforceable.
