25.01.2022 During my lunchtime ritual of checking the news I came across an article about Divorce being on the rise in Australia. I mean really, is this actually a shock to anyone?! We are spending more time now than probably ever before with our partners and children. School and work were actually a 'break' and now, there is no end in sight. ... Luckily, you don't have to be able to leave your home to seek legal advice on what your options are. That's what Zoom is for! (and maybe also part of the reason their share price is not suffering). Check out what a one-hour 'Legal Strategy Session' can do for you: https://havenlegalco.com.au/divorce-rate-soars-during-covid/
24.01.2022 Nothing like a bit of self promotion But seriously...waking up to a review like this makes our day :-)
24.01.2022 For many years, if not decades, Australians have been so well protected from the horrors that affect many abroad that we now wrongly believe we are immune from them. If nothing else, our physical distance from the rest of the world helps in maintaining this belief. I have not seen it with my own eyes and I am no doctor or scientist but I beleive that the virus is here. I need to believe that as a nation, we all want keep each other safe. ... Yes it is scary. Change is always scary, and in this case also inconvenient. It also fogs up my glasses and makes me hot in the face. But if wearing a mask ''might" save one person's life then I'll wear the damn mask. #wesupportyou #becovidsafe #wearamask #covid19 #protecteachother
24.01.2022 The way we work as Australian's has been turned upside down this year. The pandemic has thrown us headfirst into tech-enabled remote working. Businesses that weren't ready for this on-line move have struggled and sadly we are seing closed doors and 'for lease' signs across the city and suburbs alike. On the flip side, I think it has also proven that many businesses don't need a physical office space to operate. Perhaps in the 2020's we might see a seismic shift in the way we ...develop our careers. A new understanding that we can be with our families or have a tree or seachange without sacrificing career ambitions. I lived in Cobram on the Murray River for most of my 20's and it was the happiest I have ever been in my life. It is the calm, no traffic or traffic lights (one set in the whole town), the bush at your doorstep and very happy off-leash puppy dogs. My career took off there but my family brought me home to Melbourne. One day I look forward to finding that kind of calm again. Where is your calming place? #findyourcalm #workremotely #treechange #changethewayyouwork
23.01.2022 How many times a week do you forget a password, pin number or code? Have you already done it more than once today?! If we cant remember our own passwords, why do we expect our family to be able to access our digital information when we die? Living in a digital world, there are so many extra responsibilites for executors to deal with post death. Transferring frequent flyer points, closing down your Facebook account, accessing your family photos in dropbox and distributing th...em to your loved ones. But how do you access passwords upon death? Find out here: https://havenlegalco.com.au/accessing-passwords-upon-death/

22.01.2022 Yesterday, the other half of my heart turned 2 years old. It is all for you my darling Lincoln. You are my 'why'. May you grow to be so proud of all that we are achieving here xxx
20.01.2022 It's all happening!

From next week, you will be able to submit your Contract to us with the click of a button and receive your detailed written review so you can buy with confidence.... Being an on-line law firm, distance is no barrier. Everything is done electronically. No need to take time off work to deal with one of our friendly lawyers.
19.01.2022 I am enjoying: Everyone being in the same boat Hearing children and babies in the background on important work calls... Getting more sleep Having a 5pm Bailey's (mostly everyday) Working in PJ's Not feeling chained to a desk (even though I am) It has however been heartwarming this week to hear (when on calls) more and more parents have clearly stopped worrying about keeping their children away during 'work calls'. It is sometimes all just too hard! We may never experience another time like it during our lifetime - I certainly hope we don't. But...for the first time, it has put all of us in the same boat together. Everyone we are dealing with, clients, financial advisors, lawyers, conveyancers and banking staff - we are all struggling in one way or another. And this is strangely comforting. We ALL want to see an end to this hard time. We just need to hold on a little bit longer.
18.01.2022 RESILIENCE We are inspired by stories of courage, transformation and empowerment. We have all experienced either a single event or multiple difficult times that have changed us as people. These times mark points in our past that challenged us to grow as people. ... 2020 marks a year of challenges for us all. We are each struggling differently but there is always someone to help. One day this year will be just another 'scar' in our past. It will challenge us but it will not break us.
17.01.2022 We are all about being a safe place for families. We love nothing more than doing conferences with children screaming at eachother in the background, a mother breastfeeding during a Wills conference or a sad bub on screen who just wouldn't go to sleep on time. Why?! We LOVE this because it's real. It's raw and it's true! We too are working parents....It's a shit show, but we make it work. Our business model honours the reality of our clients lives. We have ALL been in the... same boat for some months now. Even more so from today! If we know littlies will be in ear shot during your conference we ensure that we settle most minor details (middle names, dates of birth, addresses) over email well before your conference so we can spend your Zoom time talking about the real issues. Like...who gets the kids and why Aunty Rita must have the antique 20th Century vase (that no one actually likes anyway). Signing's can now happen over Zoom as well. Yes, remote Zoom witnessing is now legal!! We can send you detailed signing instructions if you wish to arrange your own witnesses. And that is STILL not the best part.... All standard Wills and Powers of Attorney are 50% off until 30 August, 2020. www.havenlegalco.com.au
17.01.2022 There are not many people we meet in life that we can imagine ourselves being in a relationship with. The same is true of finding the perfect business partner. What makes us a great team is the same thing that attracts our clients to us. 'Ease'. If it isn't easy, it isn't meant to be. ... I don't mean the legal work itself, I mean the 'relationship'. You should feel a connection with your lawyer on some level. And we also believe that your lawyer needs to make working with them as easy as possible. You can have a fabulous website and great online forms (...and we have both) but you can't fake the way you make someone feel.

15.01.2022 At the risk of sounding like consumerists, today marks a momentus occasion for metropolitian Melbourne. Boxing Day has come early!! The shopping centres across Melbourne will be overflowing with eager customers desperate to line their under-used recyclable bags.... But today is actually MUCH more than that. Today is the day that we start to rebuild. Today we show our support of local businesses that have been struggling to survive for so long. Today we can visit family and friends and begin mending the broken hearts of so many. Today, we restart Melbourne.

14.01.2022 Birth Trauma Awareness Week 6-12th September, 2020 How many times have you heard "but your baby is perfect so why aren't you ok"?... It is my belief that most women experience some form of birth trauma. As women we are well known for comparing ourselves to one another and I beleive we do this with our birth stories as well. I think this is what stops us talking about birthing our children because we are worried that my birth was not as hard as my friends so I shouldnt complain. I cant tell you how much that shits me! I encourage every person impacted by birth-related trauma to raise their voices because #yourstorymatters. Partners and loved ones play a vital supporting role in the lives of women affected by #birthtrauma and can also be impacted themselves. I encourage you to start the conversation so that more can be done to better prevent, diagnose and treat birth trauma. I am well known for my authenticity and oversharing nature and the truth is I have no qualms about sharing any aspects of my past triumphs and tribulations. If any story of mine inspires someone or helps someone else in knowing they are not alone then sharing my story is worth it. It is for these reasons that I am open about telling my birth trauma story. It does not mean that I am not recovered. It does not mean that I am not coping. In fact, it is quite the opposite. I can talk about my story because I am stronger now than ever before. Talking about my story is still hard but it gets easier everytime I tell it. The short version is I walked into the hospital to have a baby and I almost didn't walk out at all. When I did leave, 1 month later, it was with a bag attached to my bowel. We all experience trauma differently. We all recover in our own ways as well. If you want to talk, TALK! If you are not ready, then sit with those feelings for a while. Whatever you do, dont hold your story hostage. I am here to tell you, no matter what has happened to you in this life, no matter what trauma you have bottled up inside of you... YOUR TRAUMA IS VALID! #starttheconversation
14.01.2022 A small celebration as we welcome the Premier's announcement that private inspections for purchases of property can recommence today!! We are offering FREE CONTRACT REVIEWS until 31 October 2020 for all contracts (with the exception of off the plan). #realestate #COVID19
14.01.2022 Everyone just wants to feel safe. Telling your story to anyone can be daunting, let alone a lawyer. We wanted our name, Haven Legal, to reflect the atmosphere that we aim to create. Open, honest, caring, and above all, safe. ... We hope we can be the people that make you feel this way.
13.01.2022 Choice. It makes us human. You might feel trapped sometimes but you always have a choice, even when you think you don't. Maybe someone just needs to show you what your options are. ... The hard choice is actually to decide to make the change. To let yourself believe you can choose to do something different. Only YOU can change your stars.
13.01.2022 Are you prepared? #Covid19 Covid-19 has understandably caused increased levels of anxiety amongst Australians. Some of us are in lock-down zones, isolated and scared with no end in sight. There really has never been a more vital time to ensure that if the unthinkable happens, your loved ones will be taken care of. A meeting with one of our estate planning lawyers, via Zoom, to discuss your will, power of attorney, appointment of enduring guardian and Superannuation death ben...efit nomination can provide you with some peace of mind that if the worst happens, your wishes will be honoured. We make working with us easy, and safe. Get started today or book a chat on our website. https://havenlegalco.com.au/wills-estate-planning/
13.01.2022 I often remind myself that how I spend my time is actually all that matters in this life. And I no longer waste my time on things that don't make me happy. The 'things' we accumulate are not coming with us to our next destination. There really is only one thing (sorry husband) that fills my heart with a joy unlike any I have ever known. And that is spending time with the human that I made. My Lincoln.... Do your babies fill your heart like mine does? And YES...I am aware he looks NOTHING like me! hahaha #Istillmadehim #myoneandonly
12.01.2022 What do you want to happen to your body when you die? Most people go for your basic, run of the mill, cremation or burial clauses. But it's the weird and wacky requests that we love! Like being buried upright, having a sea burial, ashes being turned into pencils and being posted out to anyone that attended the funeral. ... My favourite of late is husband and wife having their ashes forged into diamonds! And yes...it is a thing and it will cost you about $3,000 and take 6 months but wow! I think I might become a diamond...
09.01.2022 How far down on your 'to do list' is getting your Will sorted? Is it above or below painting the letterbox or having the dog wormed? We all understand the importance of having your wishes documented but let's face it, it isn't a high priority...BUT IT SHOULD BE!!... We all know somone who needs a Will. We want you to remind them by tagging that friend or family member that you have been nagging for ages to get do their Will. One lucky person is going to WIN a FREE SINGLE STANDARD WILL (normally valued at $440). Winner announed 4pm Monday 5 October, 2020. So please LIKE our page and TAG that person who needs a nudge to get their sorted
07.01.2022 I have decided to make every Tuesday inspiration day! Because we could ALL use some more positivity in our lives :-) A mentor I once knew used to say "Ready, Fire, Aim!" The premise of this is you don't always have to have a detailed plan with a certain outcome but you have to start somewhere and it is better to do something rather than nothing. Hence begin anywhere, take action and then you can refine it later. It is important to make mistakes. How else would we learn?... Happy Tuesday xx
07.01.2022 Today, we have launched our FREE "Surrogacy + Estate Planning" E-Book! It is available on the home page of our website or here in our latest Blog post: https://havenlegalco.com.au/surrogacy-and-estate-planning/
06.01.2022 Looking to purchase a property?

Until 30 August, 2020, provided your Contract is less than 100 pages, we will review it for FREE! Check out our latest Blog too see how a review might help you. https://havenlegalco.com.au/contract-review-informed-decis/
05.01.2022 As we prepare to go back into lockdown, this is just a little reminder to make sure you take the time to breathe in the outside air, talk to your loved ones on Zoom so you can see their beautiful faces. Remember, even on the hardest days of isolation, if you are not in ICU or hospital, you are actually one of the lucky ones.
04.01.2022 As of 1 July, 2020, we will be operating from a physical office space at 1/142 Nicholson Street, Coburg, Victoria! Can hardly wait!!

This weeks podcast is my story of becoming a mum, and the birth trauma that led to my interest in surrogacy to maybe one day grow my family. You can follow my personal insta @overnight_ostomate.... Being a Wills lawyer, we talk a lot about why it's important for surrogates, their partners and intended parents to get their wills done and keep them updated. So, have you had your will done?

There is also 50% off deal at the moment for the 6 week iso lockdown so don't put it off any longer! Get on it. https://sarahjefford.com/episode-86-adelle
02.01.2022 I can say with the utmost confidence this is absolutely NOT what working from home looks like. Working and isolating at home 24/7 during Melbourne Lockdown is: Not showering until the workday is over ... Forgetting to brush your teeth until 3pm in the afternoon (on a good day) Becoming a pro at looking 'work ready' (only on the top half!) Saving on perfume (no one call smell you over Zoom) Saving on makeup Living in trackie pants and Ugg boots Having a glass of wine (or similar) 'almost' everyday, maybe 2 Having lunch with your babies Zoom meetings all day Working all hours of the day, night and weekends because everyday feels the same... But hey! We are safe What else have you found that you are doing now that you are isolating full time at home? What have I missed?
02.01.2022 OPEN OFFER! ANYONE can take advantage of our 50% off Standard Wills and Powers of Attorney (not just health care and essential workers). In one way or another, we are ALL struggling through the pandemic together. A special thank you goes out to the staff at the RCH who have been our biggest supporters and have also been amazing in spreading the word about this great offer. ... So...TAG or SHARE with a friend or family member who has been putting off doing a Will for years. Come on...we all know that someone! 1. Instruct us online 2. One of our lawyers will draft the documents 3. Have a ONE HOUR Zoom conference with a lawyer 4. Finalise and ready for signing Offer ends 30 August, 2020. https://havenlegalco.com.au/wills-estate-planning/ - then click 'Start Will Now'
02.01.2022 We have an office!!
02.01.2022 Death of a loved one is such a difficult time. Trying to set your mind to 'what needs to be done' administratively is not something you need to deal with straight away. We have many calls the day someone dies asking 'what do I need to do now"?... My answer is always the same. Take the time to grieve. Unless there are family conflict issues, just go through the motions. Have the funeral, cry, gather your thoughts. Call us once you have received the Death Certificate. We are here to guide you through the process when the time is right. Having an assessment about what needs to be dealt with (asset and liability wise) is free. You can book an initial consult with us on our website or in the link provided.
01.01.2022 At exactly 9.54am I realised that what I thought was a 10am telephone call was actually a Zoom conference! I went from last night's Pepper Pig PJ's (which I wear purely for the laugh my son gives me everytime he sees me in it) and crazy bed-hair to Zoom ready in under 6 minutes! And see...you would never even know...... #sittinginthegoodchair #ididcleanmyteeth
01.01.2022 Does anyone else in Victoria feel like they are holding their breathe for Sunday's annoucements? Working from home has its perks and we do hope that moving forward, many industries will adopt this as a staple option for many of their employees. But... we miss getting out and about to. Doing what we took for granted before. ... Above all else, we miss our families. So we sit here, biting our nails, waiting for Dan to deliver some more good news.
