About Us

Your Passion, Our Purpose

90 Years of Service

A Legacy of Excellence

HFK Lawyers is a boutique law firm based in Sydney, proudly serving clients across Australia. With a rich history spanning over 90 years, our firm has established itself as a trusted legal partner for individuals and businesses alike. Originally founded as Maunder & Jeffrey Solicitors, we began our journey in the 1940s as a respected local commercial legal practice.

Our Roots & Leadership

Our Historical Foundations

The late Eric Maunder, a second-generation member of the firm and a dedicated RAAF veteran, played a pivotal role in shaping our early years. Under his guidance, the firm grew its reputation for delivering exceptional legal services with integrity and dedication. In the mid-1980s, Angelo Crones and Donald A. Mayes OAM took the helm, ensuring a smooth transition through natural succession. Their continued affiliation with HFK Lawyers underscores our commitment to maintaining strong leadership rooted in our values.
