About CCS Lawyers

CCS Lawyers is an experienced family law firm in Braeside, Melbourne , providing legal advice and representation with extensive experience across divorce, separation, parenting matters, and property and financial settlement.

As skilled negotiators, we will always seek to reach a settlement outside of the Court if possible. However, where necessary we will ensure your rights are protected by issuing court proceedings.

We operate within a wider network of professionals including Family Dispute Resolution Practitioners, Mediators and Barristers, and apply a holistic approach to family law matters.

Providing expert personalised support and advice, we strive to reduce the stress and expense of unnecessary litigation. Considering your personal circumstances and budget, we offer realistic advice and pragmatic solutions, no matter how complex your individual situation.

By ensuring you are fully informed about the legal process, CCS Lawyers will empower you to make the right long-term legal decisions for you and your family.

CCS Lawyers offers a mobile service and appointments can be made during business hours, or after-hours.
