Individuals and Families

Property, matrimonial, succession, criminal, consumer, MACT and tenancy counsel for private families.

Sector Overview & Operational Context

How This Sector Operates

Not every client is a business. The firm represents individuals and private families in the matters that affect them most directly: property and title, matrimonial and family disputes, succession and inheritance, criminal defence, consumer complaints, MACT accident claims and tenancy. Fees are agreed in advance and recorded in writing, and outcomes are never promised, because no advocate can.
