Drink Driving: Taking the ‘Silly’ Out of the Silly Season

December 13, 2016 By Jason Coluccio

With the Christmas festivities in full swing and everyone heading off to functions it is probably timely for me to address the issue of driving under the influence and the Law. At Welden & Coluccio Lawyers we enjoy a nice drop of whiskey.  That said; we are strong advocates for ‘all things being enjoyed in moderation’.  Without sounding too preachy, over-indulgence leads to a host of … [Read more...]

Buying a Home: How a Lawyer Can Help You Secure Your Great Australian Dream

December 8, 2016 By Greg Welden

As a lawyer, there is nothing better than helping someone realise their dreams.  Recently a couple came to me seeking some advice.  They had found their ‘forever’ home in the north-eastern suburbs of Adelaide and wanted to do everything they could to secure it.  Problem was they were nervous buyers and the house was to be sold at an auction. You see, in this part of Adelaide, auctions are far … [Read more...]

Save Money on Legal Fees With a Specialist

October 31, 2016 By Greg Welden

When my wife and I decided to have a family, not wanting to take any chances, we wanted the best medical care that money could afford.  We topped up our health insurance and employed a specialist obstetrician.  However, even with our health insurance, what with co-payments and so forth, it was an expensive option that cost us a lot more than shared care through our GP and local hospital would … [Read more...]

Caveat….Say What?

October 5, 2016 By Greg Welden

The legal world has an obsession with these lovely little words that, while sounding really special and important to those outside the profession, they really mean something which is actually quite mundane. Take the word ‘caveat’ for instance.  The word, originating from 16th Century Latin, translates directly to mean ‘let a person beware’.  In other words, or to put it more colloquially, it … [Read more...]

“The Ghost of Financial Past”: How to Avoid Being Haunted by Your Partner’s Credit History

October 2, 2016 By Jason Coluccio

In the not so distant past it was ‘normal’ for Aussies to partner off in their youth, marry in their early twenties and, as a couple, they would collectively develop a credit rating reflective of their shared financial habits.  Whatever this was, couples copped this on the ‘collective chin’.  However, with Australians taking longer to settle down to a life of coupledom, and with these … [Read more...]

A Franchising Opportunity

September 25, 2016 By Jason Coluccio

Do you have a great idea for a business with a proven track record for success?  You may wish to consider franchising your business idea. Franchising is, by definition, not actually a business.  In fact, when you create a franchise you are actually selling a marketing idea for a business.  This might include a framework for the business operation, rights to logos and marketing materials and the … [Read more...]
