ABOUT US

​

One’s professional life be it in law, medicine, education or business is not static.

 

In 2000 after over a decade of legal practice and prior to that as an educator, circumstances caused the principal of the firm, Barbara Campbell, to set up her own sole practice in her Chapman home. After a few strategic moves as we grew, we are now in Deakin.

 

Barbara practiced in all areas of law before specialising in Estate Planning / Probate / Succession Law and Family Law. 

​

The firm ‘kicked many goals’ as a colleague opined recently.

Our Mission

Our legal services are designed to provide our clients with exceptional representation, ensuring that they receive the justice they deserve. We are dedicated to building strong relationships with our clients and we approach every case with the highest level of professionalism, integrity, and respect.

Barbara Campbell

Legal Expert in Wills & Estates

Barbara is the founder and principal of the firm, which has been in business for over 20 years. Barbara is in her third decade of practice as a lawyer, Accredited Family Law Specialist since 2002 and an Arbitrator since 1997.


Barbara understands the importance for all lawyers to have access to best practices and workable innovations. These should not just be the purview of large firms.  With skills mastering multi-million dollar estate and family law matters with multiple trusts, properties and a multitude of parties, she has been looking after family’s personal legal requirements “from before the cradle until after the grave”.

From managing a sizeable firm with nearly 20 staff and several lawyers, the time has come to leave behind the 15-hour days / 6 days a week to part time work three days a week (unless doing locum work or travelling to clients) serving clients with the professionalism, knowledge and empathy to which the many lawyers I have trained were taught to aspire.

Although based in the Australian Capital Territory, Barbara is available for online work with clients all over the country, including rural areas and cities and indeed all over the world, to ensure that all our clients, no matter where they are, have access to sound legal advice.

Barbara focuses primarily on serving the regions in Mediating Family and Estate Law disputes, Arbitrating Family Law matters or part thereof, some locum work, much Estate Law and select Family Law work.

As a STEP member, Barbara has access to international Estate Lawyers and advisers and thus continues to manage international matters as well as focusing on advising local clients who may just need to update their Wills and general Estate plans.

One can never be complacent about education. Barbara has obtained a Masters in Estate Law and, while serving in the Navy as a legal officer, a Diploma in Military Law.

In addition, Barbara is an Accredited Arbitrator and Family Law Specialist and trained in Mediation with several august bodies including the Advanced Mediation Course at Bond university.

While Barbara shall always look after the needs of generations of her clients and pass on the expertise and ethics to the next generation, she now enjoys swimming for exercise, kayaking, bike riding with ‘the gang’, golf, the erudite book club and writing.  Above all, she enjoys time with, and the exquisite love of her 4 (soon to be 5) grandchildren.
