We are here to listen and guide you through any family/whānau issue or dispute including in relation to:

• Parenting matters
• Adoption
• Child support 
• Estate claims 
• Family Trust disputes 
• Mental capacity and decision-making 
• Enduring Powers of Attorney issues

We have experienced Family lawyers in our team who are strong advocates and negotiators.  We are solutions focused and provide pragmatic advice, while also showing care and empathy for what you are going through.

We believe that the best outcome is usually to reach an out-of-Court settlement, rather than leave it to a Court to make a decision that will affect your life and loved ones.  However, if this is not possible, we can also provide strong representation in the Family Court.

If you need assistance with any Family legal matters, our friendly team of experienced Family lawyers is here to help you.
