Independent assessments to support children’s wellbeing in family law matters.

Under the Family Law Act (Regulation 40), I provide Family and Child Impact Reports for families engaged in court proceedings. These reports are focused on the best interests of the child and are informed by direct engagement with children and both parents or carers.

The assessment considers a range of developmental, relational, and safety factors and is presented to the Court to assist in decision-making.

Who it’s for?:

Parents, carers, and legal professionals involved in family law proceedings.

Delivered as:

Court-directed assessments with written reports.
