Kimberley & Pilbara Lawyers is situated in historic Shiba Lane, Chinatown, Broome in the Kimberley region of Western Australia.
The firm was started by Julia Barber in 2004 and is based in Broome, although many of the firm’s clients can be found throughout the Kimberley and Pilbara regions. We also have clients in other parts of Western Australia as well as in Victoria, Tasmania, South Australia, the Northern Territory and Queensland.
The practice prides itself on developing long lasting relationships with clients, and offering multifaceted representation. We are available to assist clients in virtually every legal matter – often clients that come to our firm for legal representation or advice for a particular issue come back for advice or representation on other very different legal issues. Nowadays much of our work is referral based.
Our approach is professional, but also friendly and approachable. We give honest, down to earth advice even when, at times, it is not necessarily what a client wants to hear. We believe in providing a cost effective solution to problems if at all possible and aim to settle rather than litigate if this can be done.
We recognise that clients do not always need anything other than preliminary advice and we offer a short consultation for $150.00 inclusive of GST for a consultation of up to 20 minutes. Our experience tells us that during that period of time, clients are able to have a vast number of concerns and questions answered and may not need any further advice. Clients who need more than 20 minutes are able to schedule further appointments as needed.
