We recognise that being a family lawyer means much more than just giving legal advice. We can provide you with guidance as to your rights and obligations, and always promote outcomes that focus on the best interests of the children.

Many clients come to us, having reached an 'in principle' agreement with their spouse or partner. We specialise in drafting Family Court Orders and Agreements, to give certainty and finality to your matter, in the most cost effective way. 

There are 9 Accredited Family Law Specialists at Barkus Edwards Doolan, with a wealth of experience to ensure that your rights are protected and the best outcome is achieved for you and your family.

We can also advise clients about Prenuptial Agreements and Domestic Relationship Agreements, to take the financial pain out of the future breakdown of a relationship.
