Self-Managed Superfunds (SMSF)

Running a self-managed super fund (SMSF) gives you more control over your retirement savings, but it also comes with strict legal obligations. At Kruse Legal, we offer clear, practical legal advice to help you set up and manage your SMSF with confidence and compliance.

From our office in Blackwood, we’ve been helping individuals and families across the Adelaide Hills navigate complex financial and legal matters for over 25 years. Whether you’re setting up a new fund or need help managing an existing one, we’re here to support you every step of the way.

A Self-Managed Super Fund is a private super fund that you manage yourself, typically with up to six members. You control how your retirement savings are invested, but you’re also responsible for making sure the fund complies with all superannuation and tax laws. A common investment within SMSFs is property.

That’s where legal advice becomes essential.

Most lenders require that you get legal advice in relation to a proposed loan taken out by your SMSF. We can provide legal advice on loans you guarantee in your personal capacity or as director of your SMSF to ensure you know your rights and obligations as guarantor.

At Kruse Legal, we focus on making complex matters easier to understand. You’ll work directly with an experienced solicitor who takes the time to explain your legal obligations in plain English, so you can make informed decisions with peace of mind.

We’re proud to offer a local, personalised service from right here in Blackwood, with strong ties to the Adelaide Hills community.
