Principal Solicitor Insight
“I often ask separating couples - so how is this going to work? Do you want a judge, or the two of you, to decide? What do you think is going to work? Most matters can be resolved, in your own hands. Going to court is like asking an umpire to make a decision, you may not like it.”
Paul Walkden - Principal Solicitor at Walkden Law & Mediation

Recently had new wills completed at Walkden Law and the process was professional and simple. We were given detailed information on what we need to consider when making decisions about a Power of Attorney and Enduring Guardianship. Annabelle was knowledgeable about how to avoid difficult scenarios we have seen in our extended families and how to avoid them. Highly Recommend!
Debbie

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! I went to Walkden Law for a fence dispute, and it was sorted out so quickly and easily - I was honestly amazed. Annabelle & Susan explained everything clearly. While I was there, they also gave me some really helpful info about updating my will, which I’d been putting off for ages. Highly recommend if you’re after a legal team that actually cares, knows their stuff, and makes things simple!
Nicole

"Highly recommend" Walkden law and mediation. The whole team are super professional and they have taken the stress away and made every experience run smoothly. Over the years I have had different situations which required both family & property legal matters. What's amazing is that it's a family run business and it's all in one spot! I have been extremely happy every single time! Thank you Susan, Grace and Paul for everything. #TEAMWALKDENLAW
