Nash Allen
Williams & Wotton Solicitors · Central Coast NSW · Since 1957
Central Coast solicitors The Central Coast’s steady hand since 1957.
Commonsense legal advice, plainly explained. Whatever brings you here - a charge, a separation, a bereavement, a purchase - we’ll listen first, then tell you honestly where you stand.
Start here
Sit down with a solicitor,
not a call centre.
- Send your enquiry - or call, whichever is easier. We come back to you within one business day, sooner if it’s urgent.
- We check we can act for you - every matter starts with a conflict check, so an enquiry is a request rather than a booking.
- Sit down and be heard - tell your story, get plain-English advice, and leave knowing where you stand.
Tell us what’s happening
We’ll come back to you within one business day - sooner if it’s urgent.
Thank you - we’ve got your request.
Our office will be in touch within one business day to arrange a time. We run a conflict check first, so this is a request rather than a confirmed appointment.
If it’s urgent - or outside office hours (Mon-Fri 9am-5pm) - call (02) 4332 3588 and leave a message; it’s checked first thing.
We couldn’t send that just now.
Nothing has reached our office, so please don’t wait on a call. Ring (02) 4332 3588 (Tuggerah) or (02) 4399 2800 (Budgewoi), or email office@nawwlaw.com.au. Your answers are still in the form below if you’d rather try again.

Browse everythingSince 1957
Real people. Your matter, their name on it.
Ron Nash opened the doors in 1957, and two of his sons are partners here today. Every partner this firm has ever had is either named on our wall or here at work - the same firm, never sold, never absorbed into someone else’s name.
Experienced solicitors and a team that answers the phone, across Tuggerah and Budgewoi - many acting for the children and grandchildren of the families they first helped decades ago.

Seeing a lawyer shouldn’t feel intimidating. Every matter here runs the same way:

Explain
Plain English at every step. You’ll always know where things stand, and why.
Resolve
Practical advice aimed at resolution - not a longer road than you need.
Stay
We’re still here afterwards - the same firm Coast families have returned to for generations.

Common questions
Straight answers, before you even call.
The questions Coast families actually ask - answered plainly. More on every service page.
This is general information, not legal advice. Every situation is different - for advice on your matter, request an initial consultation.
How long do I have to contest a will in NSW?
Generally 12 months from the date of death for a family provision claim. Time limits are strict, and acting early makes everything easier - if you think you may have a claim, don’t wait.
What’s the difference between a Power of Attorney and an Enduring Guardian?
A Power of Attorney covers financial and legal decisions (paying bills, managing property). An Enduring Guardian covers lifestyle and health decisions (where you live, what care you receive). Most people benefit from having both, and we usually prepare them together with your will.
Should I talk to the police without a lawyer?
You generally have the right to remain silent beyond providing your name and address (there are exceptions, such as some driving matters). It’s almost always wise to get legal advice before taking part in an interview. If police want to speak with you, call us first.
Do I need a solicitor or a conveyancer to buy a house in NSW?
Both can handle a standard conveyance. The difference: a solicitor can also deal with anything legal that arises around the transaction - disputes, complex conditions, estates, family arrangements - without handing you off.
How does property settlement work after separation?
Broadly: identify the asset pool, assess contributions (financial and non-financial, including homemaking and parenting), consider future needs, and reach a division that’s just and equitable. You don’t have to wait for divorce to start - and early advice usually means a calmer, cheaper resolution.
“Great results, quietly achieved, since 1957.”
Request your initial consultation.
Sit down with a solicitor, tell your story, and leave knowing where you stand. Enquiring is free, there is no consultation fee for wills, conveyancing, powers of attorney, deceased estates or contested estates, and for other matters an initial consultation is $275 - full costs explained before any work begins.
