Central Coast
Family Lawyers
Our law firm is focused on helping clients through the difficult process of separation, divorce and Family Law disputes. Relationships ending can be stressful enough, without the added pressure of separating finances and figuring out what’s in the best interests of the children.
This is what we do. We’re here to help you every step of the way.
Experienced Family Lawyers
Family law is all we do.
We can help you reach agreements outside of Court whenever possible with negotiation and mediation. When that doesn't work or it's just not right for you, we can help you through the Court process too. Our lawyers have experience in the Federal Circuit Courts and Family Courts throughout Australia.
Our Passionate Team
We know the "one size fits all approach" never works in family law, because no two families are the same.
Your family and your matter are completely unique, so we always give advice tailored to you and your specific circumstances.
Understanding Your Needs
We will always be transparent when it comes to our legal fees and we can even offer flexible payment options to suit your budget and your lifestyle.
We offer fixed fee Court attendance rates and will always been transparent about the costs.
Family law matters can be stressful enough without the added worry of bill shock.

FAQ
General Question
This may be a brand new journey for you and we understand that it can be daunting. So here’s a list of some common questions we get asked:
It’s hard to know exactly how long your appointment will take. We usually set aside one hour for your initial consultation. Depending on how complicated your matter is, your consultation may take a bit longer.
We will always spend as much time with you as necessary, to ensure that you leave our offices feeling informed and confident about the next steps.
If your initial consultation takes a bit longer than an hour, don’t worry! It won’t cost any extra.
At your appointment a lot of information will be talked about. After your appointment you will receive what we call "Letter of Advice". This will detail your current unique set of circumstances and options going forward in your matter.
We charge a fixed fee of $275 for your initial consultation. If we need to spend more than an hour with you, please don’t worry! Your appointment will not cost any extra.
If you’d prefer a weekend appointment, there is an additional 10% surcharge.
We can accept payment of our initial consultation fee by either EFTPOS or cash on the day.
Whatever you think might help!
If you’ve got any Court documents, written agreements with the other party, or anything else you think might be relevant, please bring them along to your appointment.
If you come to your first appointment and you feel like you’ve forgotten something, please don’t worry. During your appointment we can discuss which other documents might be necessary for your matter.
It sure is! The building has a large, un-timed, FREE car park. There is also plenty of disabled parking available just outside the front doors.
We share our car park with Anytime Fitness, Kids HQ, the Young Parents Hub and several other businesses.
Unfortunately, our office space is not wheelchair accessible. Our office can only be accessed via a flight of stairs.
Should you require wheelchair access, we would be very happy to accommodate you. We can easily meet with you next door at the Nexus Hub instead if required.
If you require wheelchair access, please let us know when you book your appointment.
