Common questions from Macedon Valley families
Answers to the questions we hear most often — replaceable per location.
Do I need to travel to Melbourne, or can I meet in Sunbury?
You can meet us in Sunbury. Our Evans Street office serves the whole Macedon Valley, and we also offer phone and secure video consultations so you don’t have to travel into the city.
Which court will my Macedon Valley family law matter be heard in?
Family violence and intervention order matters can be dealt with locally through the Sunbury Magistrates’ Court, while parenting and property matters generally go to the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia in Melbourne. We’ll explain what applies to you.
How is rural land or a family farm treated in a property settlement?
Rural land, lifestyle properties and family farms form part of the asset pool. We work with valuers and accountants where needed so any settlement fairly reflects the value of the land and any business.
Can you help with both family law and wills & estates?
Yes. Our team includes experienced wills and estates lawyers, so we can help Macedon Valley families with wills, probate, powers of attorney and estate disputes as well as family law.
How much does an initial consultation cost?
We’ll explain our fees clearly before you commit to anything, so you understand the likely costs and the value we provide from the very first conversation.
What should I bring to my first appointment?
Photo ID and any relevant documents — court paperwork, financial statements or an existing will. If you’re unsure, just come as you are and we’ll help you gather what’s needed.
