You built the firm. When it's time to step back, retire, or grow by acquisition, ORLA brokers the whole thing quietly — valuation to handover — with the discretion a law practice demands.
Most suburban principals have no succession plan and no one asking the question. We're the ones who ask it — and then handle it.
A sole practitioner or small firm ready to step back — we find the right buyer and structure a clean, confidential exit that protects your clients and your name.

Nothing is disclosed without a signed NDA. Staff and clients never learn a firm is on the market until you choose. Blind listings only.
A licensed business broker runs the deal; an experienced lawyer covers the parts that trip up generic brokers — trust accounts, client-file transfer, practising-certificate and compliance requirements.
We can transition the practice onto the ORLA platform — CRM, phones, website, billing — so a buyer inherits a modern, running firm, not a filing cabinet. That lifts the price and de-risks the sale.
We already work with legal firms across Victoria — so we know who's buying, who's growing, and where a good practice will find a home.
Tell us where you're at. No obligation.
We sign a mutual NDA, then value the practice.
A simple broking agreement; mostly success-based.
We approach vetted buyers — never naming you until they're bound.
Offer, contracts, transition — with the legal detail handled.
Nothing goes further without your say-so, and we'll put a mutual NDA in place before any detail is shared.
We'll be in touch discreetly to arrange a private conversation and an NDA before anything is shared.
