What We Do
Specialist legal and commercial advisory across the full corporate lifecycle, from formation and capital raising through to listing, governance, M&A, and where required insolvency, recapitalisation and reconstruction advice.
Transaction counsel for buyers, sellers, and boards navigating complex corporate transactions.
Stynes Consulting provides end-to-end legal advisory on mergers, acquisitions, and disposals — whether for an ASX-listed company, a private equity-backed business, or a founder-led enterprise. Cary Stynes brings over 30 years of transactional experience, having advised on and participated in numerous corporate transactions across technology, media, infrastructure, mining, retail, and the emerging sectors.
Advisory is grounded in commercial reality: every transaction has strategic, financial, and governance dimensions that a purely legal lens will miss. Stynes Consulting works alongside financial advisers and accountants to deliver integrated deal counsel.
From first institutional round to ASX listing — end-to-end capital markets advisory.
Stynes Consulting has advised on numerous equity raisings and ASX listings across a wide range of industries and transaction types. The firm acts as lead legal counsel on initial public offerings, reverse takeover transactions, placements, rights issues, and convertible note programs — including full prospectus preparation and ASIC and ASX liaison.
Ongoing compliance advisory for ASX-listed companies — from continuous disclosure to chapter amendments.
Maintaining compliance with the ASX Listing Rules is an ongoing obligation for every listed entity. Stynes Consulting provides day-to-day compliance advisory to listed company boards and management, including continuous disclosure obligations under Listing Rule 3.1, related-party approvals, and the management of ASX queries.
Board advisory from someone who has sat in the chair — not just advised it.
With over 30 years of board experience across numerous listed and unlisted companies — as managing director, executive director, executive chairman, and independent non-executive chairman — Cary Stynes brings a practitioner's understanding of governance that is rare in a legal adviser.
Advisory covers the full range of governance matters, from board establishment for a newly incorporated company to governance reform for an established listed entity navigating regulatory scrutiny.
Commercial agreements that protect your interests and support your commercial objectives.
Stynes Consulting advises on a wide range of commercial agreements for growth-stage and established businesses — from technology and IP licensing to distribution, joint venture, and partnership structures. Where appropriate, the firm works alongside specialist counsel in areas such as tax, employment, and intellectual property.
Businesses carrying aged receivables face a decision about how best to recover value from debts that conventional follow-up has failed to resolve.
Stynes Consulting works with creditors to assess their portfolios and determine whether an outright purchase represents the most practical path to resolution — combining direct collections experience with in-house legal expertise, including a practising barrister, to assess, price, and act on portfolios across commercial and consumer credit sectors. For debtors contacted by us regarding an outstanding liability, we engage professionally, prefer resolution to escalation, and consider payment arrangements where circumstances warrant.
Stynes Consulting accepts corporate, M&A, capital markets, and governance instructions. Initial consultations available for qualifying matters.
