About us
We focus on doing things differently, for both clients and staff. Our core purpose is:
‘To help and empower people with compassion and innovation.’
Our lawyers listen to our client’s needs and help them find the process and outcome that suits their circumstances. We advocate out of Court solutions and Collaborative law to help parties have a fast, amicable settlement wherever possible.
We have unique premises in both Canberra and Melbourne to promote staff satisfaction and client engagement. We have designed our office space to look less like a law firm, and more like a home (we even have an indoor garden, complete with a swing).
We also recognise that Law can be a stressful area to work in for our staff. We strive to have a work environment which supports our lives and values women.
None of our Directors have offices. They share the open plan space with everyone else.
Our motto is: Modern Lawyers – Real People.

Canberra M. asked:Lawyer recommendation ------- Can anyone suggest a good lawyer? My brother and sister in law are being refused visitation to their grandchildren for no reason what so ever except for the fact that the son in law is a total waste of air and just doesn't like them. I can't stand to see my brother and his wife in such a destressed state anymore! Surely they have some sort of grandparents rights?? Any advice/help would be appreciated.
Tariq M. replied:I highly recommend Averil Foster Solicitor she works https://m.facebook.com/FarrarGesiniDunn! Very intelligent and caring person! Regards

Canberra M. asked:Does anyone have any great recommendations for a family law lawyer here in Canberra for my husband to see regarding a custody dispute where the ex is withholding the children as she pleases due to absolute ridiculous reasons. Mediation has already been attempted but she pulled out after the initial meeting with both parties (unfortunately she is high conflict). We need a great, blunt and very informative lawyer to help us. ThankyouAngela C. replied:Farrar Gesini Dunn https://www.fgd.com.au 👍

Canberra M. asked:Just wondering where families got their wills done, were they happy with the service and how much $$ did it cost? TIANicole S. replied:Www.fgd.com.au - prices always depend on complexity no matter where you go. A will is always best done with a solicitors advice and they should help you consider various circumstances. It's worth it to do it properly.

Canberra M. asked:Hi CMs, I'm seeking advice on the processes and costs for preparing a will, power of attorney and guardianship etc. I have a husband and young child and our affairs are quite simple so I'm looking for something relatively inexpensive, including whether there are forms we can complete and lodge ourselves. Is there anything in particular we need to specify for our child in case something happens to my husband and me? Alternatively recommendations for suitable lawyers etc who charge reasonable rates would be useful. Thanks!Nicole S. replied:I would recommend contacting www.fgd.com.au and talking to one of the solicitors. Simple wills are fairly straight forward and pricing doesn't differ too much until it gets complicated. Will kits though can leave simple things unconsidered and it's always best when wanting to ensure your loved ones are looked after. :)
