Welcome to Paynes Lawyers Barristers & Solicitors, a premier boutique firm specializing in family law. Located in West Perth on Ventnor Avenue, our establishment is a point of interest for those seeking expert legal advice and representation in family law matters.

When family relationships break down and legal intervention becomes necessary, it is crucial to have a law firm that not only possesses a deep understanding of Family Law but also has the experience and empathy to guide you through the complex processes involved. At Paynes Lawyers, we have been specializing in family law for over three decades, making us well-equipped to handle even the most challenging cases.

We understand that dealing with family law matters can be daunting, especially if it is your first experience with legal proceedings. Our team of highly skilled lawyers has been representing clients in Western Australia since 1982, providing them with the support and reassurance they need during these difficult times.

Divorce proceedings can be particularly intricate, and it is essential to be aware of the basics. When a relationship comes to an end, it is important to reach an agreement regarding the division of assets and liabilities, including superannuation if you are married and residing in Western Australia. If you are in a de facto relationship that has ended, seeking advice is crucial to protect your interests.

Furthermore, both the Commonwealth and State Parliaments have enacted laws governing the support parents must provide for their children until they reach the age of 18. Our experienced team can guide you through the intricacies of these laws and ensure that your rights and obligations are upheld.

Our team of accomplished lawyers includes Anne, who graduated from the University of Western Australia in 1979 and has been practicing Family Law since 1982. She became an accredited Family Law Specialist in 1994 and has a wealth of experience in mediation, having completed the University's 'Alternative Dispute Resolution for Professionals Course' in 2013.

Julia, another Accredited Family Law Specialist, has been exclusively practicing family law since 2010. Her expertise includes the complex area of children's rights after the death of a parent, and she gained valuable insights into court processes and procedures during her time as a Legal Associate at the Family Court of Western Australia.

James, a recent addition to our team, graduated with First Class Honors from the University of Notre Dame in 2014. His passion for assisting disadvantaged individuals led him to provide legal services to those at risk of homelessness at Street Law Centre WA. He then spent 18 months as the Legal Associate to the Chief Judge of the Family Court of Western Australia, further honing his skills and knowledge in family law matters.
