The Entrance Office

About our Entrance Office

Nash Allen Williams & Wotton solicitors have been serving the Central Coast since 1957, with our presence in the area always anchored by our offices in The Entrance. Three of our Partners–Michael Williams, Peter Wotton, and Geoff O’Reilly–are based at our The Entrance offices, along with Associate Anita Harricharan. While each has their own specialisation, between them almost all our areas of practice are covered by our The Entrance offices.

Michael has decades of experience aiding Central Coast families and businesses with their residential and commercial conveyancing needs, and commercial leasing. His expertise extends to working with deceased estates and Succession Act claims (contested wills and estates), supported by drafting and advising on wills, Enduring Powers of Attorney, and appointments of Enduring Guardian.

Peter has been with Nash Allen Williams & Wotton solicitors since the late 1970s, and Partner since 1984. While also having experience and expertise in managing deceased estates handling Succession Act claims (contested wills and estates), Peter is known to regularly visit elderly or disabled clients in their home to assist with will preparation, appointing Enduring Powers of Attorney, or appointments of Enduring Guardian. However, he is perhaps best known in the Central Coast community for his family law work, from matters relating to property and children, through to helping with Binding Financial Agreements and cohabitation agreements.

Geoff joined Nash Allen Williams & Wotton in 2016, following an extensive career with the NSW Department of Justice. He advises clients and their families on matters relating to succession planning, deceased estates and estate litigation and all will disputes. This includes the appointment of Enduring Powers of Attorney and Enduring Guardian, retirement village contracts, deeds of guarantee in relation to finance agreements, and reverse mortgages. However, his experience also extends to areas such as residential and commercial conveyancing, retail and commercial leasing, the sale or purchase of businesses, commercial law, administrative law, and civil litigation.

Anita has been with the firm for more than two decades. In addition to advising on residential and commercial property transactions, Anita regular reviews contracts, mortgage documents, leases, and retirement village agreements. Her expertise extends to checking for compliance with statutory and contractual obligations, arranging pre-purchase property inspections and assisting with government authority enquiries throughout the conveyancing process. Anita does not only focus on Commercial Law and Conveyancing. She also works with Deceased Estates and advises on effective Estate Planning, including the drafting of wills and Powers of Attorney, and appointments of Enduring Guardian.
