How we can help you

Our Brisbane Northside legal services focuses on four areas of law that touch the most important moments in people's lives and businesses. Each service is delivered with the same commitment; plain-English advice, proactive communication, and no surprises.

Property & Conveyancing

Buying or selling property is one of the biggest financial decisions you will make. Our Property and Conveyancing lawyers handle residential and commercial transactions, contract review, leases and Form 2 seller disclosures across Queensland, keeping you informed at every stage to ensure that settlement day goes exactly as planned.

Family Law

Matters arising from the breakdown of a relationship are rarely straightforward, and the stakes are high for you, your children, and your financial future. Our Family Lawyers provide calm, practical guidance that helps you understand your options and move forward without unnecessary conflict and expense, all while ensuring that you achieve an outcome that sets you up for your future.

Wills & Estates

A properly structured estate plan protects the legacy you have built, the people you love, and removes uncertainty about what happens next. Our Wills and Estates Lawyers handle Wills and Testamentary Trusts, Enduring Powers of Attorney, Advance Health Directives, Probate and Estate Administration, and Estate Litigation.

Commercial Law

Strategic and practical advice for businesses and individuals across contracts, leases, and transactions that carry real risk if they’re not handled properly. Our Commercial Lawyers provide plain-English commercial legal advice for business owners and individuals; without you feeling as though you are just a number.

Why clients choose us

Most people don’t choose a law firm based on a website. They choose based on trust; a recommendation from someone they respect, a review that rang true, or a first conversation that felt right.

What we hear most from new clients is that they are worried about being left in the dark, overwhelmed by legal jargon, or treated like just another file. We actively build our practice around being the opposite of that with our focus firmly on moving you and your matter forward.

At Kelly Lawyers you won’t be passed around or left wondering what’s happening. You’ll deal with the same experienced team from first contact to final outcome. You’ll receive plain-English advice that makes sense and assists you to make an informed decision. You’ll always know what comes next because we tell you before you have to ask.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Real feedback from people we've helped

Kelly Lawyers have helped me for years, starting with my home purchase in Hamilton. They’re professional, easy to deal with, and the firm feels approachable. I’ve since used them for other property matters, as well as family, and wills and estate-related work. I’ve always felt supported and well guided through the process. Their advice is clear, they communicate well, and they make legal matters feel far more manageable.

Sam Hayden

Kelly Lawyers supported me through a separation and family law matter involving young children, and the difference for me was their approach. They were kind, clear, and aligned with my values from the first meeting. I was never left in the dark; the advice was practical. I’ve since used Kelly Lawyers for wills and power of attorney as well, and I recommend them to clients who ask for a family lawyer I genuinely trust.

Michael Kusnierz

Kelly Lawyers supported me through an extremely difficult period with calm, clear advice, and genuine care. They were professional, child-focused, and always responsive when I needed guidance. I valued the consistent communication, the smooth continuity within the team, and an approach that was practical and measured, not aggressive. I felt supported from start to finish, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Georgina and Alex to anyone who needs trusted family law support.

Leesa Stenfors

I stick with lawyers if I trust them, and I trust Alex and Kelly Lawyers explicitly. They are trustworthy and very open, and the team does what is required. If there are any hiccups, they get in touch, and if I want options, they give me those too.

Ian Smith

I’ve worked with Kelly Lawyers for decades and I trust them completely. They give practical, considered advice; they’ll tell you when not to fight something, and they consistently under promise and over deliver. Their advice protected me through the sale of my business and stood up when it mattered. I value the honesty, integrity and the way Alex stays involved and takes a considered approach, even in difficult situations.

Not sure which service you need?

That’s completely fine, many of our clients come to us knowing they have an issue that needs to be sorted, but perhaps not the precise area of law it falls into. Give us a call or book a consultation and we’ll listen, ask the right questions, and point you in the right direction. No pressure, no jargon, no commitment required for an initial conversation.
