Family Law & Mediation Articles

Your first consultation

At your first appointment we will listen to your instructions and provide our legal advice on your rights, entitlements and options for settlement.
You will leave your appointment with a thorough understanding of your options, your costs and what to expect from us.

From then on and throughout our work with you, we will communicate with you regularly.
We will address your questions and concerns promptly, with sound advice and understanding.
We’ll be your voice in troubled times.

If you have received a letter from another lawyer or been served Court documents, you should provide them to us in advance so we can prepare for our appointment with you.
If you are seeing us about property or financial matters, it helps to have a list of your assets, liabilities and superannuation.
If you are seeing us about parenting or grandparenting matters, it helps us to know the names and dates of birth of your children and what their current living arrangements are.
If there are urgent circumstances, for example you suspect your ex-partner will abscond with your children or is taking steps to sell or transfer assets, you should let us know so we can commence acting immediately.
