Maxwell & Lancaster offers an experienced, professional and compassionate approach to helping you through family law matters. We strive to protect your legal rights and assist you to achieve the best possible outcome, while respecting and understanding the emotional stress that you may be under.
Separation and Divorce
We encourage separated couples to seek legal advice as soon as they can. Before reaching and finalising divorce documents, you may need to work through many other issues around property settlement, financial support and access to children.
By talking to us early, we can ensure that you are well informed and that your rights are protected.
Property Settlements
Our family law team are experienced in negotiating fair property settlements. Whether it’s the family home, shares, bank accounts, superannuation or other assets, we will gather together a clear picture of the situation and give you the best possible indication of what the likely result will be.
We encourage parties to work together in reaching an amicable settlement. We believe most people want to finalise their family law property settlements as quickly and as cost effectively as possible, this means keeping your matter in your control and out of Court.
The breadth of our practice means we can also help you process the property sales or transfers as part of your family law matter and we can prepare your new Will and Enduring Power of Attorney as well.
We understand it is quite a process working through all of the things that come from the end of a relationship, but we are here for you guiding you through each step. We encourage you to call and make an appointment with one of Maxwell & Lancaster’s team members to discuss your own personal family law matter.

Thank you so much!
– Sinclair and Gwen
Dealing with a stressful and emotional situation was made easier by Michael’s easy going and reassuring manner. At all times I felt his understanding of my situation and he was always willing and able to impart his knowledge and advice in an easy to understand way. A lot of stress was taken out of my situation by his enthusiasm and the rapport which was quickly built. I would highly recommend to have dealings with this firm.
– Katrina
Just a quick message to say a big thanks for all the work and the help you provided to coordinate the sale and purchase of our properties.
It was seamless and stress free from our end, and that is largely attributed to the professional, friendly support offered by yourself (Holly) and Rebecca.
Please pass a big thanks on to Rebecca for us, and be certain that we would use no other firm but Maxwell Lancaster in the future.
Once again, thank you.

We used Maxwell & Lancaster Solicitors for our property purchase. Rebecca and her team were so knowledgeable and efficient, and took all of the stress out of what is a major life decision. As far as I am concerned, Maxwell & Lancaster Solicitors set the standard. We have since referred several family members to Rebecca and I know they are in excellent hands.
