At Family Law Solutions, we connect our legal expertise with your legal problems to get outcomes for individuals and whanau. With a high value placed on honesty and fairness, we can provide our clients the right advice at the right price.
More than simply Lawyers, a key strength of our firm is that we are all parents and family members from diverse backgrounds. We understand the importance of whanau relationships, along with being a part of our wider communities and helping others. We act for privately retained and legally aided clients but more importantly, we serve clients who are genuinely motivated to resolving their disputes.
If mudslinging your ex-partner or using children as pawns in a tit-for-tat game are the type of things that move you to act, our firm is not for you. However, if you are forward-focussed and want to resolve family legal disputes in a prompt, fair and reasonable way then partner with us and let us help you, it’s what we do.
