Legals in the Mountains
Legal work in the Blue Mountains has all the rein of problems in the city.
Problems fall into categories: Commercial disputes, family law, estate planning (Wills, Attorneys and Guardians).
However, there obviously isn’t the same number of clients in the area.
Therefore, difficulty is being “up to date” in each of these areas.
City firms often have 10 or more departments that are required for the 10 or more general categories of legal issues.
John Chapman is able to keep up with most of the areas by his connections with Barristers in the normal area who can readily advise John or the clients as to a particular problem area.

Areas of Practice
wills & personal documents
Proper planning with a proper Will will care for your loved ones and organisations you favour. If you are injured or things become complicated later in life then who is going to assist or even take over your financial affairs? When will that operate from?
Similarly, who is going to look after you, and assist in deciding your medical services and where you will live?
commercial matters
Disputes in the business world must be treated as “business matters” and not a “matter of principle”! Strange as that may sound the focus must be on achieving a commercial result of the money that can be spent on legal costs. It is not cheap to comply with Court Rules and the accuracy of evidence.
Family Law
A very stressful jurisdiction.
We are sensitive to the significant personal issues that need to be understood and dealt with.
the law here is one thing, but assisting clients cope with dramatic changes to their lives is of critical importance.
employment law
Awards and workers’ rights are complicated. Whether you are a worker or employee it is important to know what you should do. There are set “procedures” that are just as important as the facts in this area.
conveyancing
It may surprise you what can be achieved by “document” “special conditions”. A property can go on the market before Probate. Have you considered being a tenant in your own property with the cash then to reinvest or to move house when you’re ready? We work with very senior conveyancers on all these tricky technical issues.
computer fraud
Sadly, a growing area.
What do you do if your identity has been stolen?
What do you do if you’ve made a mistake?
Police should be involved?
“We must all obey the great law of change. It is the most powerful law of nature.”
