Our practice seeks to be the most respected Family Law firm in Australia. We propose
to do this by providing quality advice and service from well educated lawyers backed
up with the best of working systems and technology. The people we seek that respect
from are our clients.
From the initial consultation clients are treated as being part of a team with an
agreed goal to finding the solution to the problem in the most cost effective way.
The cost of each matter is discussed with clients at the outset and if there is
need for a review of estimated costs as a result of unforeseen circumstances, our
clients are informed as soon as possible. We don’t act for everyone that walks in
the door because working in a team environment means that it has to be a good fit.
We seek to develop and maintain relationships with our clients well after a matter
is completed and hope all our clients are walking advertisements for the practice.
The breakdown of a relationship is usually a time of great anxiety for both parties
and we find it helpful to identify where the parties are in terms of the grief cycle.
For most people it takes up to two years to go through all the phases of grief including
the initial nervous shock, the sadness and anger and finally the coming out where
the blue sky reappears and people see a future without their previous partner. Identifying
what you are and your previous partner are going through will often explain why
some behavioral issues surface. The breakdown of a relationship is for many a new
beginning and being the person that you want to be not what you have become takes
courage and support. Carew Counsel can and will support you through the change with
compassion, understanding and a clear sense of direction. Our lawyers will keep
you focused on getting the solution to the problems in the most time and cost effective
way. We take the view that there is a cost benefit analysis that needs to be applied
to every matter. For example if the argument was reduced to $10,000.00 or $20,000.00
you would expect to hear us say “why pay that to your lawyers give it to your spouse”.
If the amount is substantially more then by all means you would be encouraged to
pursue your entitlements but of course the final decision rests with you, the client.
