The Family Court of Western Australia is still accepting applications, with most hearings are currently by phone.  Applications for consent orders do not require court attendance. 

Appointments

Where possible, all appointments will be by phone or video conferencing (Skype, Facetime or other platforms). However, where absolutely necessary, face to face appointments can be arranged subject to prioritising the health and safety of all concerned.

We request that clients do not attend at the office but rather call us on 9721 4144 to arrange an appointment.  Our friendly staff will do whatever they can to accommodate your particular circumstances.

Property and Business Settlements

Property settlements are continuing to occur. We are registered for electronic property settlements with PEXA.  If you need a settlement agent or require assistance with a property related matter please contact us for an appointment. Young & Young property settlement fees are competitive with settlement agency fees, with the added peace of mind of supervision and assistance from qualified lawyers when required.

Our experienced lawyers supervise and conduct business settlements and can advise on all aspects of business sale transactions and settlements.

Delivery and Collection of Documents

Should you need to collect or drop off documents to our office, please contact us by telephone in the first instance so that we may advise of the appropriate process for your situation.  Please note that we have a delivery slot in the front door of our Bunbury office at ground level.

Courts and other disputes

Subject to protective health measures, courts in Bunbury and Perth remain operational.  Our lawyers are continuing to attend court when required.

There is no need to delay if you require assistance with criminal law matters, building or construction disputes, contractual problems or general litigation. We can provide you with strategic advice regarding your options.

Covid 19 – how does it affect you?
