Our Practice

We understand when going through a family separation, that the process can be difficult and that every experience is unique. Our focus is on personalised service, taking the time to understand your needs, and make the law accessible. We take the time to really listen, and when we give advice, we focus on providing a practical solution. We pride ourselves on providing exceptional service and results.

We offer a competitive pricing model, and are focused on giving you transparency and clarity right from the beginning around your legal fees.

We prioritise seeking to resolve your matter quickly, and we promote and use alternate dispute resolution services such as mediation as a first step. We understand that the sooner your matter resolves, the sooner life for you and your family can move forward.

In the event any matter does require court intervention, our lawyers are experienced advocates in the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia, from small hearings through to defended trials. 

We have an ethos of transparency of the process, costs and how to navigate through a matter towards sensible solutions for clients.
