"Break-ups are never fun and working through them can be tough. We all have our own little coping mechanisms eating vast quantities of chocolate, a night out with the girls, going on a shopping spree but does this really help? Im all for bingeing on a bag of M&Ms while trawling my fav o...nline stores but this only helps in the moment. What I found after working in family law for many years is that quick fixes are often not as helpful as wed hope."

21.01.2022 Collaborative Law is a process whereby each client engages a lawyer and both parties work together to resolve a dispute without going to court. The aim is to reach a fair agreement while minimising costs, delay and stress. Whilst this approach is relatively new in Australia, Brisbane Family Law Centre have helped many clients resolve their matter through Collaborative Law. The feedback we have received has been very positive, in the sense that desired outcomes have been rea...ched, without the sometimes substantial time and emotional effort often involved in other approaches. Collaboration allows you to manage the settlement process while minimising costs. Where couples can quickly gather and exchange the required legal information, settlement can be reached in 3 to 6 months. The speed at which you finalise your matter can be adjusted to suit your familys needs.

12.01.2022 It is Mothers Day! Happy Mothers Day to all those wonderful Mums out there. Here is a blog written by our Director Clarissa Rayward on the "7 new job titles in case you think you are "just a mum." "INSTEAD OF JUST A MUM HOW ABOUT THESE NEW JOB TITLES!... So just in case you are like Susan, like my mum or like a good few of my clients and it is time for you to chase a few of your own dreams back in the world of business, I have come up with a few alternate job descriptions you might want to toss around so you dont fall into the trap of telling me you are just a mum- 1. LEADER Mums are some of the best leaders I know. They have the thankless task of leading a rowdy group of kids (let alone the adults!) of all ages at all times! As a business owner, I firmly believe that if you can convince a toddler to get dressed and out the door before 8am without tears and a tantrum then you are a leader I need in my business! In business we hear about the importance of leading by example using emotional intelligence and being mindful. These mums I know do this day in day out without a leadership manual to help them through. They just know that to keep the business that is a home moving forward, you need a leader who can take a deep breath and guide the team through."
