Straightforward, cost-effective and caring legal advice in the following areas:
Family
Personal
Business
Not all relationships last a lifetime. Even so, separating from someone you love, or once loved, is one of the hardest things we humans go through. You need good, strong support systems so that you can move through your separation with dignity and go on to thrive in the next phase of your life.
Good Country Law is here to support you with all of your legal needs at this time including:
- Divorce applications;
- Parenting arrangements;
- Financial settlements; &
- Binding Financial Agreements.
Most of us would prefer that the legal system stayed out of our personal lives. But the fact is that when we get sick or our lives end, we need others to take care of us and our loved ones.
One of the most caring things we can do for our families is to use the law to plan ahead for those times. Good Country Law is here to support you with that through:
- Will preparation;
- Deceased estates including applications for Probate;
- Powers of Attorney;
- Advanced Care Directives;
- Care & Protection matters in the Youth Court.
Good Country Law works collaboratively with your accountant and other trusted advisers to provide you with good, timely, cost-effective legal solutions so that you can get on with running your business.
We can support you to prepare and deal with a wide range of commercial needs, including:
- Farm leases;
- Fishing license transfers;
- Trust deeds; and
- Loan agreements.
We are happy to confidentially talk through your issue with you, whatever it might be.
If we are not able to act for you, we will refer you to someone in our skilled network who is able to assist.
