About

A different kind of advisory firm.

Corson Fiske Advisors combines tax, legal, accounting and corporate finance expertise under one roof — with the agility of a boutique and the technical depth of a major firm.

About Corson Fiske

One integrated firm. Four core disciplines. Partner-led on every engagement.

Corson Fiske Global Alliance

An alliance of independent multi-practice firms across tax, legal and commercial advisory.

The Corson Fiske Global Alliance brings together independent advisory firms — each combining tax, legal and commercial advisory under a single roof — to deliver coordinated counsel on cross-border matters that no single firm could undertake alone. Member firms share standards, methodologies and client referrals while maintaining their independence and local market depth.

01 — Points of value

Coordinated multi-practice counsel

Every alliance member operates as an integrated tax, legal and commercial advisory firm. When matters cross borders or disciplines, clients receive coordinated counsel from a single point of contact — not a series of disconnected referrals to unfamiliar firms.

02 — Geographic reach

Australia, New Zealand and Asia

The alliance currently spans Australia, New Zealand and Asia, with active member firms supporting clients across Sydney, Melbourne, Perth, Singapore and partner relationships in Auckland, Wellington and the major Asian financial centres. Reach continues to expand as new members are admitted.

03 — Service reach

Tax, legal and commercial advisory

Combined alliance capability spans corporate tax, international tax, dispute resolution, restructuring, corporate finance, intellectual property, technology law, commercial litigation, and the full breadth of board-level commercial advisory. Members select clients carefully and refer freely within the alliance when matters fall outside their core capability.

Integrated advice, delivered with partner-level attention.

Headquartered at Grosvenor Place in Sydney, Corson Fiske Advisors Pty Ltd works alongside incorporated legal practice Corson Fiske ILP to deliver end-to-end solutions across tax, accounting, insolvency, corporate restructuring and intellectual property matters.

Our clients range from ASX-listed companies to family-owned businesses, high-net-worth individuals and international groups operating in Australia. What unites them is a need for clear, commercially grounded advice on complex matters — from routine compliance through to contested proceedings and cross-border transactions.

What makes us different

  • Partner-led engagements on every matter, with direct access from day one
  • Integrated tax, legal and advisory capability under a single roof

What we believe.

Corson Fiske exists to give directors and boards access to the kind of senior, integrated, independent counsel that large firms have structurally stopped providing. We believe that advice is only useful when it can be acted on — which means recommendations rather than options, plain language rather than caveats, and genuine accountability for outcomes rather than hourly billing for activity.

We believe that the most consequential matters in a business rarely sit within a single discipline, and that clients deserve coordinated counsel across tax, legal, restructuring, corporate finance and advisory without being charged three times or asked to be the integrator. Our integrated structure is the answer to that.

And we believe that partner-led means partner-led. The partner you hire is the partner who does the work, remains on the file, and is accountable for the outcome. Every engagement, every client, every matter.

Cross-border capability across three regions.

We advise clients wherever their business takes them — through owned offices and long-standing correspondent relationships.

Region One

Australia

Our home market and the base of our partner-led practice. Offices in Sydney, Melbourne and Perth serve ASX-listed companies, large SMEs, private enterprise and family offices across every state — with deep sector knowledge and integrated capability across restructuring, tax, legal, accounting and corporate finance.

Melbourne

Perth

Region Two

New Zealand

A natural extension of our Australian practice given the integrated trans-Tasman economy. We advise New Zealand businesses and Australian clients with New Zealand operations on tax, corporate and restructuring matters, drawing on correspondent relationships and direct engagement from our Sydney base.

Auckland

Wellington

Region Three

Asia

Our Singapore office anchors our Asian capability and serves as the coordinating hub for engagements across Southeast and North Asia. We work with clients on cross-border tax structuring, international trade, corporate transactions and Australia-inbound investment across Singapore, China, Japan, Korea and Vietnam — each of which presents distinct regulatory environments, commercial conventions and advisory needs.

Clients choose us for clarity, not complexity.

Corson Fiske exists because clients facing consequential decisions deserve more than boilerplate advice. Our partners have built their careers on the matters most firms avoid — contested insolvencies, complex tax positions, cross-border IP disputes, urgent restructurings — and that experience shapes every engagement we take on.

We are deliberately structured to stay close to the work. Partners lead every matter directly. Teams are right-sized to the issue. Advice is delivered in plain English with a clear recommendation, not a list of possibilities. And because our tax, legal, accounting and advisory capabilities sit under one roof, clients get coordinated answers to questions that would otherwise require three separate firms.

Most of our work comes from repeat engagements and direct referrals. That continues to be the clearest signal we are getting it right.
