Family Law
Our team of lawyers takes a unique approach to Family Law. We recognise that the parties involved are experiencing a stressful period and strive to alleviate that stress as much as possible.
Given the lengthy court lists, we believe that court proceedings should be avoided whenever possible. We explore various alternatives to court and often find that a sensible approach can significantly reduce costs. However, there are situations where an agreement cannot be reached, and legal proceedings are necessary to protect your rights. In such cases, we handle litigation as cost-effectively as possible.
We offer fixed-price services for Divorce and provide advice on Prenuptial Agreements (or Financial Agreements), Consent Orders, and Property Settlements.

Criminal Law

We recommend you contact as early as possible if you have any issues, so we can ensure your rights are protected.

Aged Care Agreements and Retirement Living
We regularly review agreements and leases for Aged Care facilities. Retirement Village agreements can be intricate, and it is crucial to understand their implications before signing.
We provide guidance on what to look for in an Aged Care facility to ensure it aligns with your needs. Many individuals overlook the details of these agreements, assuming any issues will only affect their estate. However, we often find that clients need to transition to higher care facilities at some point, and this is when they discover potential problems with their agreements.
We will ensure you fully understand how the agreement functions, the fees involved and their timing, and we will work to maximise the funds you receive should you need to exit the facility.
