I’m Fiona Shilton
Your Estate Lawyer
A big-hearted, straight-talking, avoider of avoidable problems.
I have over 17 years experience working in litigation, family, and estate law in Adelaide and The Adelaide Hills. A graduate of Adelaide University I am a keen hiker, mum of five, wife of one, and convinced I’ll talk myself to death one day.
In September 2022 I was awarded the SA Woman Emerging Woman In Business Award in recognition of my passion for changing the face of estate planning and creating a business that supports my wider community.
Whether you want to write a will that takes care of your family or you’re in the process of managing a deceased estate, at Your Estate Lawyer we’re on a mission to…
⭐ Set families up to succeed (not fail or fight)
⭐ Help will makers use their will as a reward (not a weapon)
⭐ Support executors with kindness, compassion, and care (not leave them to flounder)
⭐ Death is a once in a life time experience that’s worth getting right.
You deserve someone on your team who can ask hard questions, help you navigate ever changing legal requirements, avoid avoidable problems, and communicate what’s in your head and your heart in a way that will look after your wishes and your family.

Hello! I’m so excited to be on the small business journey. I am Certified Practising Conveyancer based in the beautiful Mid North / Clare Valley. I specialize in residential and rural transactions, estate and matrimonial transfers.
After many years of being under the “Corporate Firm Umbrella” in conveyancing, 2024 is the year I have taken the leap to go out on my own. Doing so allows me to be more client focused and embrace the communities I live and work in which is so important in rural areas.
I have been in the real estate industry for over 20 years with the directional change to conveyancing taking place in 2015. Over those years, I have seen an enormous change in the conveyancing industry including the mandating of e-conveyancing.
To broaden my world, I absolutely love travelling both overseas and locally. We are exceptionally spoiled for choice in SA with a fabulous food and wine scene of which I am an avid supporter!
I read. I cook. I garden. I live on our farming property between Clare & Burra. I am a huge fan of my two towering sons who keep the reality of life front and centre for both my husband and I.
It’s an exciting time to be taking this on and to embrace the networks around me.

I live in the beautiful Adelaide Hills, South Australia with my husband and two young boys. When I’m not working, you will find me hanging out with family & friends, pottering in the garden, listening to podcasts or tucked away with a great book.

Originally from Adelaide but after graduating from university many moons ago, I relocated to Perth where I worked for many years in Mining and Oil and Gas.
I then transitioned into transformation consulting which I have done for the past 7 years.
I returned to Adelaide 5 years ago with my husband to be close to family and I am loving every minute of it!
I’m in a junction in my career and keen to build relationships with other fabulous business women in Adelaide.

Hi, I am Hayley Towers and I run my own micro law firm, Towers Legal.
I am a business lawyer, operating virtually for clients all over Australia. I have 18 + years of legal experience and I do all things contract, risk and compliance, employment, and even disputes.
My clients are usually “bigger” or regulated small business owners who need that extra bit of legal help on an on-going basis. I love to form ongoing relationships with business owners, so that we can work together holistically, often in step with your business accountant.
I live in the Adelaide Hills with my husband and two boys.
