Personal Services

If you are an individual or family facing a legal issue you need an experienced lawyer to guide you through the process in the most cost-effective way possible, and to make sure you get the best results.

At Maclarens Lawyers, we understand that you want plain, simple advice that you can understand. You want someone to tell you what the options are, then advise you on the best course of action for your personal situation.

We offer a range of services for personal clients, including:


Family break-up and separation can be a very difficult time for everyone concerned. Whether you choose to follow the traditional court-based divorce process, or the new collaborative family law approach that avoids court, Maclarens Partner Bruce Tilley can provide expert advice and representation to help you get the best results possible.


Wills and Estate law can be a complex area to navigate. Christine McPhillips is an accredited specialist in Wills & Estate law who understands the technical requirements while being approachable and sympathetic. Christine can help you create a Will, obtain Grants of Probate, prepare Powers of Attorney and Enduring Guardians, and even contest a Will.


If you are buying a house, selling a house or dealing with mortgages and Development Applications, you need timely and accurate property law and conveyancing advice that you can trust. You need an experienced property lawyer to make sure that the process is handled as smoothly as possible and that you minimise the risk of potential problems.
