24.01.2022 Congratulations to Eliza on working conscientiously for the past few years toward her goals; getting her dream job and on soon becoming a graduate Solicitor. All the best to you for your future career.

22.01.2022 TIPS TO DO BEFORE SEEING A FAMILY LAWYER ABOUT PROPERTY: 1. WRITE YOUR LIST OF ASSETS, LIABILITIES AND SUPERANNUATION OUT; 2. FIND YOUR MARRIAGE CERTIFICATE IF YOU ARE MARRIED; AND... 3. WRITE OUT THE FULL NAMES AND DATES OF BIRTHS OF EVERYONE IN YOUR IMMEDIATE FAMILY. THESE ARE HELPFUL FOR THE LAWYER TO HAVE READY TO GIVE YOU THAT PRELIMINARY ADVICE YOU NEED. THINK ABOUT HOW GOOD IT WILL BE TO DO THE SETTLEMENT IN A RESPECTFUL AND COLLABORATIVE WAY.

22.01.2022 Sometimes you know someone close to you needs mental health help. Here is the Mental Health Line (1800 011 511). This is a 24 hour telephone line available to provide people with mental healthcare advice and facilitate links to appropriate mental health support services in your local area. This is a NSW number. To all our friends, colleagues and families take care and watch out for one another.

22.01.2022 Our address in Manly

21.01.2022 We welcome Eliza Crowe-Maxwell and Isabelle Sidery to the firm. Both are local, friendly and willing to go that extra mile.

21.01.2022 It is the season for giving. If you are in need of a family lawyer contact us before Monday 23 January 2020 to receive a free Will. Conditions apply. Give us a call to find out if you can receive this gift. Happy Christmas.

20.01.2022 Emotional abuse is awful and debilitating to anyone experiencing it. It manifests itself sometimes over years and the person being abused is confused and can easily become anxious and depressed. If you are in a relationship that makes you feel that way or uncomfortable with someone who will not get help or go to counselling you should come and see me. I can provide options for you and legal advice pertinent to your situation. Divorce is not the dirty word it was 30 years ago. Call me or go on our website and enter your confidential details. I can help you move forward with your life.

19.01.2022 Mediation is a tool that can push two people through to a settlement they have been wanting for months, perhaps years at far less expense than going to Court. It is confidential. As an accredited Mediator in Family Law, I can work with couples who are legally assisted, or amicable, who wish to resolve property division fairly. Who doesnt want their financial freedom and the break they deserve? Call Gentles Family Lawyers to start the process of mediation.... Ioanita Gentles, Solicitor/ Mediator and Collaborative Family Lawyer on (02) 8319 7498. Lets get mediating.

18.01.2022 COUPLES IN DISPUTE? Where can you turn in a pandemic? Some families are in crisis right now and dont know where to turn. COLLABORATIVE PRACTICE is an internationally-recognised method created to help divorcing couples, and parents manage divorce and child custody matters peacefully without the Courts.... As a Collaborative Family Law Practitioner, on the Northern Beaches, I can help you find a better and more amicable way of resolving any of these disputes. If you are interested in finding out about this respectful process that is quicker and generally less expensive than other processes, contact me: Ioanita Gentles, Collaborative Family Lawyer/Solicitor Director and Accredited Mediator on (02) 8319 7498 or [email protected] and find out how being "collaborative" can solve your problems.

17.01.2022 At the Eastern Suburbs Family Law Seminar at the Carrington in Katoomba this weekend, I met some people looking for sponsors to train a guide dog puppy called Sunny. The chocolate lab is my dog Archie. Hes 10 now and is a wonderful friend to all my family. Happy to say the firm has sponsored Sunny. Hes a cutie.

17.01.2022 These are trying times for some people, if not all of us. Be kind and patient as things are changing so quickly that our minds are not quite understanding them all. We at Gentles will continue to work in a safe way being mindful of our clients needs and staff. Patience is certainly the virtue to engage for the next few months while this awful pandemic is put to rest. Wishing everyone a healthy and safe time over the next few months.

16.01.2022 Mediation: Key Points 1. It is a voluntary way to resolve your dispute and is aimed at problem solving. 2. You and your spouse can freely discuss and explore things as mediation is confidential. Information learned in mediation cannot be used later in court.... 3. You can ask your lawyer to attend mediation with you. This is support and legal advice there at your fingertips. 4. The Mediator is impartial and is there to assist you to find different options and ways that your dispute can be resolved.

16.01.2022 YOUR WILL. Dont leave it until the last minute. Come and have a discussion about what is important to you. Now is a good time to put your affairs in order. Call now: 8319 7498

15.01.2022 Do you need some advice on a property or a de facto property matter? If so, give me a call on 99770889 or 8216-0886. Get the right advice first time.

15.01.2022 Divorce statistics are down this year from last year. Over 49,000 people got divorced last year. I do hope 2020 will be a positive experience for you all. Wishing you all a happy and safe Christmas 2019.

13.01.2022 It has been devastating to see and hear about the fires in NSW and Victoria. Our sympathies and condolences to those who have lost homes, livestock and loved ones.

13.01.2022 To all our clients and colleagues, friends and followers: GENTLES FAMILY LAWYERS have moved their Manly office on 1 May 2020 to: Unit 9/ 14 Eustace Street, MANLY, NSW 2095.... The new phone number is 8319 7498. We are on the corner of Sydney Road and Eustace Street opposite the wonderful Manly Oval. We are ready to assist and help our clients meander through Covid-19 issues and try to bring certainty back. Take care everyone; best wishes from Ioanita, Flora, Eliza, Elly, Isabelle and Bek.

12.01.2022 Interesting situation. If you have property in your sole name and your husband or wife did not pay for it, contribute to it in any way over 20 years but there were children cared for and other non-financial contributions can the non-financial spouse claim on your property? The answer is "YES". That property in your sole name forms part of the matrimonial pool of property. It also applies to bank accounts in only one persons name. Need legal advice on your family law property matter. Give me a call on 8319-7498 or 8216-0886.

10.01.2022 Thank you to all our clients for 2019 and wishing you a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. All the best for your futures.

10.01.2022 There are a few people having issues with their de facto relationship. To know if one exists can also be problematic and not always clear cut like marriage. If you need assistance and feel confused about what you are legally entitled to when your de facto relationship has ended, please call Ioanita Gentles on 9977 0899. We can give you clarity and assist with parenting issues and a property settlement.

10.01.2022 Please donate if you are able. What a great cause. Thank you to Louisa for swimming even when she has cancer.

09.01.2022 Wills are an essential part of life as they tell our loved ones how we would like our assets divided, our children to be cared for, and what we would like to do with our bodies. At Gentles Family Lawyers we are hoping to assist as many as possible to have a Will that reflects that persons wishes. Feel free to call us with your "wishes" and we will help you to sort that aspect of your life out without any stress.

09.01.2022 Even though these are unprecedented times and most of have no idea if we are safe from this pandemic I want to say that I have a great team of women to work with. Thanks for the support Elly, Flora, Eliza and Isabelle.

08.01.2022 What a great charity; a great swim; and always proud to say that you are an amazing friend too. Well done Louisa.

08.01.2022 YOUR WILL. Don't leave it until the last minute. Come and have a discussion about what is important to you. Now is a good time to put your affairs in order. Call now: 8319 7498

07.01.2022 Are you becoming fed up with living separated under the same roof? Has there been psychological or physical violence or abuse in your relationship? If so, maybe obtaining a Court Order for sole and exclusive occupation is the answer. Call me or contact me on the website for legal advice that will count. We help you move forward in your life because you matter.

07.01.2022 Mental health is probably one of the first things to take a dive when a marriage or relationship is in strife. Many clients talk about partners being narcissistic. Such a personality disorder can make the other person feel isolated and unloved leading to irreconcilable differences and breakdown of the relationship. Call me for best advice on what to do next in resolving your property matter and any parenting dispute. Call Ioanita on 9977 0889 or 0412341635. Were here to help you move on with your life.

05.01.2022 Many people are worrying about the Christmas school holidays and how they can guarantee having time with their kids then. Call me as there is a cut off date in early November to have your application filed in court and if you dont need to file an application you have time to negotiate with your ex partner. The number is (02) 99770889 or 0412341635.

04.01.2022 I really enjoy being a collaborative family lawyer. Come and ask me why. All families deserve to be treated with respect and have their needs and worries considered when negotiating a family law matter to settlement.

04.01.2022 Family is the most important part of our social fabric. If you need some helpful advice call the Family Relationship Advice Line on 1800 050 321. Anyone can call this number about family relationships. This includes young people, children, parents and grandparents. There are experienced professionals on line waiting to help you. If you feel like you need a bit more help then call us on (02) 9977 0889.

01.01.2022 These lovely ladies from Navigate Financial Manly can assist you with obtaining finance as in a mortgage and with superannuation and income protection and life insurance.
