Family Law Initial Consult
Start here.
Your free initial consult.
Separation can make everything feel uncertain. Your first legal conversation should do the opposite. Whether you need advice about property settlement, parenting arrangements, divorce or separation, our free initial consult is designed to give you clarity on where you stand, what your options are and what deserves your attention first, so you can make your next decision with greater confidence.
You will speak confidentially with Alicia Lucas or Rachael Kropp from our Family Law team, in person at our Bli Bli office, by secure video meeting or by phone. The consultation usually runs for 15 to 30 minutes, with no obligation to proceed.

Frequently asked. Clearly answered.
Yes. The initial consult is free and there is no obligation to engage us afterwards. If you decide to go ahead, we explain our fees clearly before any work begins.
Anyone on the Sunshine Coast who is separating, or thinking about it, and wants to know where they stand on property, parenting, child support or divorce, including where domestic violence is involved.
It lets your lawyer prepare properly. Reading your circumstances beforehand means the consult is spent on advice and options, rather than on gathering background information.
No. We ask for their details only so we can check our records and make sure we do not have a conflict of interest. We will not contact them, and they will not know you have enquired.
If our check shows we have previously acted for the other party, we are not able to act for you. We will let you know promptly so you can arrange other representation without delay.
Most consults run for 15 to 30 minutes. We can meet either in person at our offices at the Bli Bli Village Town Centre, 310 David Low Way, Bli Bli, via a secure virtual meeting, or a phone call.
Anything you think is relevant: court documents, agreements, letters from the other party or their lawyer, and a list of the questions you want answered. If you have nothing on hand, that is fine too.
