Justin Clark
Justin Clark practices in the area of Family Law. His focus is primarily on contested court proceedings, and includes family law appeals. He believes that the key to successful and persuasive advocacy is thorough legal research and preparation. Justin conducts himself in court with professionalism and civility. He believes in providing all clients with a realistic outlook of the process that lies ahead.
Justin believes in developing practical and creative solutions to matrimonial disputes. Whether through court or through negotiated settlements, he strives for long lasting arrangements that maximize the best interests of the client. If you are experiencing the emotional and financial pain of separation or divorce you need professional guidance and advice that focuses on available options and likely court contested outcomes. The entitlements and obligations flowing from the breakdown of a committed relationship, particularly where children are involved, need to be carefully considered within the unique factual circumstances of each case.
If an unfavourable decision has been rendered against you, or if an appeal has been commenced against you, Justin will discuss your available options and strategies. He will assess the likelihood of the appeal being successful, advise you on the remedies available, provide you with an understanding of the process and will take immediate action. Successful appeals require persuasive written materials, and thorough legal research. Justin will ensure that all materials are carefully crafted so as to optimize the conditions for success.
