How We Can Help

What kind of legal support Do you need?

We can help you survive and thrive your separation in a number of ways.

Some people may prefer to have an experienced family lawyer manage their case from start to end, or they have complex needs and requirements.

Others may have arrived at an agreement and require straight-forward legal advice and drafting to ensure terms agreed upon are legally binding and to their advantage.

People choosing to self-represent may also seek support through legal coaching. Increasingly, people are choosing a hybrid approach of representation at significant court and mediation events with legal coaching in between.

We can discuss with you what approach suits you best and the effects on your case of taking a particular approach.

How we Can Help

Just advice

This is helpful if you are just recently separated and you just want to know your rights and obligations. Or perhaps you are at a point where you are stuck in your matter and don’t know what you should do next.

Drafting support

You are self-representing and would like a family lawyer to review and edit your documents. Legal advice provided only if requested.

Coaching

You run the show and are self-represented. However, we coach you along the journey, advising you what to say and do from behind the scenes.

Legal Representation

From start to end, we manage your matter. We appear on your behalf and act as your legal representative at any mediation, negotiation or court events. You provide the information and we carry you through the process giving you strategic advice. If in court, we are recorded as solicitor on the record.

Is Self-Representing Right For You?

If Not, We Will Represent You

We have different levels of legal support for different people. Some prefer to represent themselves at court and mediation events and seek just advice or coaching behind the scenes.

However, self-representing is not for everyone and you consider whether you will jeapordise your case if you do proceed without legal representation. You may wish to ask the following questions of yourself:

Do have an ability to pull together voluminous information and documents in an organised fashion and summarise information?
Can you communicate your story effectively by focusing on what the key issues are and speaking in a professional manner?
Can you deal with psychological-legal tactics calmly and manage stress while thinking on your feet?
Can you put aside your emotions to focus on (a: for parenting) what is best for the children and (b: for property) what is fair and just?
Does your matter exclude any claims about family violence, abuse, risk of harm to a child, or parenting incapacity?

If the answer is NO to any of the above, we are happy to discuss with you how we can best represent you in the most cost effective manner.
