Watts McCray Lawyers

About Watts McCray

As a specialist and leading provider of Family Law services in Australia, we understand Family Law and the way the various Courts function. Our lawyers, many of whom are Accredited Specialists in Family law, are well placed to provide our clients with the best possible representation in all manner of family law cases.

However, what truly sets us apart is that we understand people, provide a caring and supportive environment and work closely with our clients to resolve legal issues. We aim to help clients understand and feel more in control of their changing situation. That’s why we place so much emphasis on communication.  A Watts McCray client always has access to a Family Law Specialist who has the ability to discuss any matter of concern with them.

What sets us apart

At Watts McCray, we believe that our Family Law knowledge and expertise assists our clients to achieve the best possible outcomes. Whether they need help in resolving parenting arrangements (formerly custody laws), or they are looking for divorce advice, Watts McCray have over 25 years experience in providing Family Law services, and over 400 years of combined Family Law experience.

As a family law firm that employs a large number of family lawyers including many accredited Family Law specialists, our clients’ legal costs can be better managed through considered delegation of work to team members with appropriate expertise and experience to complete the work required. At all times, our lawyers strive to ensure clients can access the information and advice they need from a lawyer with whom they feel at ease communicating.

Our experienced team includes a retired Family Court Judge, a current professor in Family Law and former Chair of the Family Law Counsel, and some of Australia’s most respected and well-regarded Family Lawyers. Additionally, two of our solicitors are Fellows of the International Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers (IAML), which is a worldwide association of practising lawyers who award this status to only the most experienced and expert Family Law specialists in their respective countries.

We also believe that clients chose to retain Watts McCray to assist with their family law matters because of:

• Our strong reputation for settling disputes without the need for a court hearing;
• Our team of lawyers having sound knowledge and experience in Collaborative Law and other Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) methods. In fact, we have some of the most highly regarded mediators in Family Law in Australia today; and
• Our specialisation in Family Law being complemented by expertise in Commercial, Corporate, Property and Estate Law - allowing us to assist and advise in other areas of legal practice where required.
