Family Law Services

We offer three main areas of family legal services.

Property

Protect your assets now and in the future. We can help with binding financial agreements (“prenups”), property settlements, and will planning as it relates to your family law matter.

Parenting

What happens to your children when you separate from your partner? We can help you to navigate this process, and the legal system, to get the best outcome for your family.

Divorce

Applying for divorce after separating from your spouse can be an emotional and stressful time. Our team is here to guide you and carry out the formal processes of bringing your marriage to an end – whether that be to enable you to re-marry or to formally close this chapter in your life.

Apprehended Domestic Violence Order (ADVO)

Are you experiencing domestic abuse at home? Or, have you been charged with a domestic violence offence and don’t know where to turn? When a family law matter escalates, you need an experienced criminal lawyer on your side to protect and defend you and your family.

Criminal Law

If you’ve been charged with a criminal offence – whether it involves your former partner, family member, or any other members of the public – we’re here to defend you. We will help by advising you of your rights, preparing you for court, and arguing your case to give you the best possible outcome.

Traffic Law

If you get in trouble on the road and get charged with a traffic offence such as driving under the influence, or lose your licence, we will support you. When investigating your case, our team will leave no stone unturned and argue strongly on your behalf.

Criminal Law Services

When going through the stress of a family breakdown, you may find yourself caught up in other legal challenges involving a criminal or traffic law matter. We can help.

Wills and Estates

Throughout the various stages of life, we offer services and support to provide you and your family peace of mind.

Wills And Estate Planning

Estate planning can include making a will, power of attorney and appointment of enduring guardian. We can guide you through the process, giving you peace of mind and protecting your family from stressful legal disputes at an already difficult time in their life.

Deceased Estates

The loss of a loved one is a difficult and emotional time. We can help you through all legal processes, including acting for the executor and managing the application for the grant of probate. We can also help if there is no will in place, or if you need to dispute a will.
