Business Succession: Plan Your Legacy

Passing on your business in Queensland (whether to family, existing business partners, or a third-party buyer) is about more than stepping away; it’s about securing value for what you’ve built. At Foxlaw, we understand the emotional and practical aspects of succession. From family farms in Central Queensland to professional firms with multiple partners in Brisbane, we’re here to craft a succession plan that protects your legacy and ensures a smooth transition.

Why is a succession plan so important?

Because without one, your life’s work could unravel. Without clear plans, families fight, deals fall apart, and businesses fail to survive change. Succession planning isn’t just about retirement it’s about securing the future for everyone connected to your success.

We help turn uncertainty into structure, and doubt into direction so your legacy doesn’t just survive, it flourishes.

Tax, duty, and compliance sorted

We work closely with your accountant to manage capital gains, transfer duty, and other financial risks — no last-minute surprises, just smart planning.

Succession strategies tailored to you

Every business and every family are different. We help you explore your options: family succession, leadership buy-outs, or external sale, and we build a plan that fits your goals.

Dispute prevention by design

We put clear rules and pathways in place to prevent family conflicts or partner disagreements from undermining your hard work.

The right legal agreements

Buy-sell agreements. Partnership or shareholder arrangements. Transfer conditions. We draft or review every document to make sure your intentions are locked in, and future risks are reduced.

You’ve built something worth protecting. Let’s plan for the next chapter with purpose, not panic.

  • We create clear, customised plans that match your goals.
  • We draft solid agreements to lock in your wishes.
  • We collaborate with your trusted advisors for smooth transitions.
  • We help you exit on your terms — and protect what’s yours.

Pass the Torch. Keep the Flame Burning.

Leaving doesn’t have to mean letting go. With the right plan, you don’t just exit a business, you empower the next chapter of its story.
