MEET GILLARD FAMILY LAWYERS
Specialised and Experienced Solicitors in Newcastle
We have accredited specialist family lawyers at our Newcastle law firm who can help you in your family law matter. We specialise in all areas of family law including parenting and property matters, court proceedings and consent orders.
We offer a fixed fee initial consultation from $330. You will have a face-to-face meeting or for remote clients we can offer a video conference appointment.
We have no set time limit for our appointment, instead focusing on each individual case and the time it needs to answer your questions. Our approach is not to offer 15-minute free consultations. We offer in-depth tailored analyses of your matter and work with you prior to the appointment to obtain relevant information so that our lawyers can provide you with advice that is more than just the basic advice you may receive in a short 15-minute phone call.
