Reliable, Trusted, Experienced - 160 years strong
At Baker Deane & Nutt, we pride ourselves on being a full-service law firm, providing expert advice with a personal touch. With a rich history spanning over 160 years, we have accumulated a wealth of experience in a wide range of legal services. Our firm's history dates back to the early 1850s when Deane & Deane started practice in Sydney, and to 1861 when Mr. Joe Scrivener started practice in Queanbeyan. The two firms merged in 1923, and since then, we have been committed to providing exceptional legal services to Canberra, Queanbeyan, and the surrounding regions.
