About us

Strongman & Crouch is a commercial law firm that services the business community and high net worth individuals. The firm specialises in conducting complex higher court litigation, and in providing commercial advice to, and preparing business documents for, substantial companies and families.

We only resource matters with experienced lawyers who add genuine value: we avoid double-handling. Our team includes experienced ex-counsel from the Victorian Bar with years of court-room experience acting as advocates in some of Victoria’s largest and most complex commercial disputes.

Our sole objective and focus in all matters is to achieve the most commercially favourable outcome possible for our clients. This includes for Chinese clients with whom our lawyers are able to converse in Cantonese and Mandarin.

We are proud of our history: for more than 140 years, under the same name, we have provided our clients with focused and expert legal advice, delivering successful commercial outcomes.

Our dedication to our clients, our understanding of and commitment to their needs, and our promise to provide the best possible service, each and every time, differentiates us from other firms.

While we consistently find ourselves competing with large international and national firms, we don’t strive to join their ranks. Our size allows us to remain efficient, cost-effective, nimble and driven by our clients’ needs. Service and success are our key drivers.

A substantial portion of our work is referred by other law firms and barristers: we are known in the market as being very good at what we do. Our reputation is reflected in our listing as a ‘recommended’ law firm in “Doyles’ Leading Commercial Litigation & Dispute Resolution Law Firms – Victoria” for 2023 and 2024, where we feature as the only true boutique firm.
