Our Firm
Stacks/The Law Firm, Pitt Street, specialises in family law matters. Family Law is an umbrella term designed to cover those areas of law which become relevant if your family relationship breaks down. It can also apply to circumstances arising from a family member's death or care proceedings involving children.
Stacks/The Law Firm, Pitt Street, was founded by Director, Lesley Young, in 1999. Prior to this, Lesley ran the family law arm of Stacks/The Law Firm’s general practice in Castlereagh St.
Stacks/The Law Firm is an independent, autonomous legal practice. As a member of Stacks/The Law Firm, the largest regional-based network of law practices in Australia, we have access to the combined knowledge and experience of 76 professional staff in 20 offices across NSW and QLD. We also service the area outside of our immediate Sydney location, making use of up-to-the-minute communications technology.
At Stacks we appreciate that being involved in proceedings or negotiations arising from the breakdown of your family relationship can be a distressing and confusing experience. You may be experiencing a feeling of lack of control over important events and decisions.
Our aim is to ensure that you are well informed about the progress of your matter, and of the options and remedies available to you. We want to resolve any proceedings in an efficient manner, whilst achieving the best possible outcome for you. We appreciate that it is important that you are involved in decisions about your case and we actively encourage you to work with us to achieve these outcomes. It is important to us that you understand the legal processes and their consequences, so we endeavour to provide advice that is easily understood. Your enquiries will be treated confidentially and with patience and consideration by all members of our staff.
We understand how important it is to regularly review the quality of our legal services. Our firm continues to meet the rigorous requirements of the ISO 9001 Quality Management System standard. Having been certified since 2003, we are proud to have obtained re-certification to the ISO9001:2008 standard for a further three years, following a recent re-certification audit by SAI Global.
