Whether you are navigating separation, negotiating a significant property settlement, resolving parenting arrangements, or seeking to protect your wealth through a financial agreement, our approach is strategic, discrete and tailored to your circumstances.


How We Work With Cairns Clients:

While our principal office is in Melbourne’s CBD, our Managing Partner has family located in Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast region requiring frequent travel to and from the area.  

We are regularly attending Court in the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia in Brisbane, Maroochydore and Cairns, and advocating on behalf of our client’s meaning Brynne is available to meet you in person and close to home. 

We understand that convenience and discretion are important. Many of our clients have demanding professional schedules, travel frequently, or simply prefer not to attend a law office unnecessarily. For this reason, we offer flexible ways of working together, including:

  • Flexible appointment times to accommodate your schedule.
  • In-person meetings at your preferred location.
  • Secure video conferences for clients anywhere.
  • Telephone conferences where appropriate.
  • Electronic document signing and secure online document sharing.
