HELPING BUSINESS OWNERS AND INDIVIDUALS TAKE CONTROL IN A FINANCIAL CRISIS
The Jones Partners story goes way back to 1970 when Brian Kahlefeldt, a Chartered Accountant started an insolvency practice in Temora, NSW. In 1986, Michael Jones acquired Brian’s Practice and relocated to Sydney in 1989 where he initially practiced from Bankstown and subsequently Sydney and Parramatta during which time Jones Partners was established.
Other Principals, Bruce Gleeson and Daniel Soire have been involved with the Firm since the time it was effectively established in Sydney and Parramatta. While the Firm’s name has changed slightly over the years, the “Jones” name has remained constant, along with the philosophy of the Firm.
All our Principals are “hands on” practitioners and have an enormous depth of experience in this field across a range of industries. We also have professional resources spread across a range of specialities. We utilise these to provide the most desirable outcomes for all stakeholders.
With around 30 staff we can handle complex, large and long running assignments. Our organisation structure and resourcefulness of staff members enables us to effectively deal with smaller assignments in addition to handling more complex challenges. Irrespective of the complexity and size of the assignment we recognise that in providing leadership and clarity to business owners and individuals we obtain better outcomes for all stakeholders.
The insolvency and bankruptcy fields are dynamic and in a state of constant change. This requires an acute understanding of legislative reform, recovery optimisation and re-organisation or realisation strategies. With a continual focus on staff training, we ensure that we can optimise solutions based on the current regulatory and business environment.
At Jones Partners, we make it our mission to provide honest, accurate and realistic advice that business owners and individuals facing financial difficulty can apply to rebuild their lives and businesses quickly and with the least amount of stress. Importantly, we do this by taking time to understand the particular issue/s that have led to the present situation. We see this as important in order to successfully formulate and implement tailored solutions.
We pride ourselves on our ability to explain everything to our clients in “plain english” when dealing with insolvency, bankruptcy or related aspects. Business owners and individuals typically have not been exposed to financial difficulty previously and appreciate the time we take in leaving no question unanswered. We are committed to helping those in financial difficulty clearly understand their financial position and the options available to them.
