De Saxe O'Neill Family Lawyers 67 Wanganella Street, Balgowlah, New South Wales 2093

Welcome to De Saxe O'Neill Family Lawyers, a local family law firm located in Balgowlah, Australia. We understand that going through separation and divorce can be a challenging time, which is why we are here to offer practical solutions that work for you.

Unlike traditional firms, we provide a private and supportive space where we can discuss your specific needs. Our goal is to find family-friendly processes to address your concerns, and if necessary, we are willing to communicate with your former partner or their lawyer. While we can provide tough representation in court, our first choice is to explore alternative methods and collaborate with professionals such as mediators, financial advisors, and counselors to help you and your family navigate this difficult time.

We believe that having an experienced expert in family law on your side can make a significant difference during a relationship breakdown. Our collaborative approach aims to create a win-win situation for those who want to avoid court and maintain constructive interaction going forward. We have skilled collaborative lawyers who can guide you through negotiations and ensure your best interests are protected.

If you are unable to reach an agreement regarding your children's care arrangements, the Family Law Act requires parents to make a genuine effort to resolve their conflicts through family dispute resolution (FDR) before resorting to court. Our team is well-versed in handling such matters and can provide the necessary guidance and support.

In addition to family law services, we also offer Elder Law Services that provide personal and specialized legal advice to older individuals and their loved ones. Whether it's handling wills, living arrangements, or care decisions, our team is here to assist you through every step.

Janine, our highly experienced family lawyer, has been practicing in all aspects of Family Law for over 30 years. She understands the importance of keeping families out of court and aims to find amicable solutions whenever possible. Margie, another experienced member of our team, specializes in various areas of family law, including parenting, property settlements, Hague Convention matters, same-sex and de facto matters, and relocation and recovery applications.

Don't just take our word for it - our clients have praised us for our empathetic, efficient, and clear approach. We strive to provide exceptional service from start to finish.

If you have questions about the stance of the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia on certain issues, such as vaccination for children of mixed view families, we can provide guidance based on the case of Covington & Covington. We stay up-to-date with the latest developments and can assist you in understanding your rights and options.

We also understand that special occasions like Mother's Day, Father's Day, and birthdays can be challenging to navigate for separated or divorced parents. As Mother's Day approaches, we want to share some tips to help make the day enjoyable for both mom and the children.

At De Saxe O'Neill Family Lawyers, we believe that the best interests of the child should always be at the forefront of any decision-making process. The Australian family law system is built on this principle, and we are committed to ensuring that the court considers the best interests of the child when making any decisions regarding children.
