Our Approach to Family Law Matters
Every family matter is unique, but our focus remains the same — standing beside you, protecting your interests and helping you achieve the best possible outcome for your family, finances and future. Here’s how we can help:
Negotiation
We’re experts at negotiating agreements. Our highly skilled team of family lawyers here in Townsville use the art of negotiation to establish a relationship between two or more parties, agree on transactions or manage family conflicts and resolve disputes. Sometimes known as kitchen table discussions, we’ll advise you on the best course of action to satisfy your individual goals in a favourable and just way.
Mediation
Sometimes family conflicts or disputes are more difficult and therefore cannot be resolved using negotiation alone. In these cases, we’ll assist with mediation. Here we provide issue resolution to assist families who are undergoing problematic divorce or family law disputes. As well as encouraging separating couples to parent cooperatively, mediation encourages people to resolve any issues they have on the day, thus negating the need to undergo expensive court proceedings.
Court Proceedings
If family disputes cannot be settled out of court then often the only way forward is to undergo court proceedings. Our Townsville family lawyers will work hard to protect your interests and ensure the right outcome is achieved – one that best suits your needs while minimising any emotional and financial stress. If you need someone to fight your corner, then talk to our efficient team of litigation experts because we can help.
