we help individuals and couples create balance and harmony during and after separation so they can move on and thrive.
We believe in resolving family law matters with dignity, understanding and insight.
While the law provides a legal solution and the standard approach to family law resolutions will give you a % breakdown or “range of likely outcomes”, often finding the human solution is equally important.
At Balance Family Law we don’t do standard.
We support everyone to consider the full picture and take into account each individual’s perspective when thinking about their future following separation or divorce. We focus on solutions and have the skills and expertise to de-escalate conflict so that everyone achieves a balanced future.
Using creativity and technology, we work with you to quickly and efficiently formalise agreements and develop solutions that work for you and your family.
With a positive perspective, the end of a relationship can actually be an opportunity to transform your life.
