About Stephen Roberts

Stephen has over 20 years’ experience practising in family law and qualified as a solicitor in 1991.

In 2009 he launched Cairns family law firm Roberts Family Law with a focus on providing a friendly and personalised service to clients. He has since helped hundreds of clients achieve a successful resolution of their family law issue.

Stephen recognises that when a client separates, whether married or de facto, this can be a very stressful time. He uses every effort to ensure that clients feel at ease and can talk freely about their legal matter. Stephen believes in a “common sense first” approach to law and recognises that for many clients this may be their first contact with a lawyer.

Stephen has the experience to navigate negotiations in relation to financial settlements, however small or complex the asset pool. He also has the sensitivity to guide a client through negotiations relating to the emotive issue of the arrangements for the children of the relationship.

Stephen has substantial experience and success in negotiating successful outcomes through mediation, correspondence and drafting Family Court consent orders. He is also an experienced advocate, with many years of experience appearing in the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia.

A Cairns local of 25 years Stephen is a big fan of the tropical lifestyle. Outside of work he is a keen musician, playing piano and guitar.

Family law is a sensitive area that addresses your children, your property and ultimately your future. It is important to have the benefit of experience on your side.
