Separation & Divorce

I recently engaged Rhiannan Earl for a family law matter and cannot recommend her highly enough.

From our first meeting, she was incredibly prompt in her communication, ensuring I was never left wondering about the status of my case.
Rhiannan manages to strike the perfect balance between being kind and empathetic during a difficult time, while still providing the highly knowledgeable and frank advice necessary to make informed decisions. She doesn’t sugarcoat the realities of the legal process, which I found invaluable for setting realistic expectations.

Importantly, she is an excellent choice for men navigating these often complex systems, offering a balanced and fair perspective that makes her a standout professional for anyone, regardless of gender, seeking high-quality representation.

She is focused on the facts and ensures you feel heard and supported throughout. Ultimately, her expertise led to a fair outcome that has provided much needed clarity for the future. If you are looking for a solicitor who is professional, straightforward, and genuinely effective, Rhiannan is the one to call.

Would highly recommend Delaney Roberts Newcastle.

Monique went above and beyond in attending to my Family Law matter; I was very pleased with the outcomes in my CSC pension. Personalised and professional the entire team.

Linda always took the time to explain each step and provide guidance and expertise. I can highly recommend her and the team.

Linda and her team are truly amazing! Not only is she is an expert in family law, she is also kind, compassionate and supportive. Communication was always clear and prompt. I felt supported and cared for during an emotional and difficult time.

Blaise explained everything clearly, kept me informed every step of the way, and fought for the outcomes that mattered most to me. What really stood out was how Blaise’s balanced strength with empathy — I never felt like just another case.

I can’t speak highly enough of the support, professionalism, and compassion I received from Blaise during one of the most difficult periods of my life. Divorce is never easy, but having someone who genuinely listens, advocates with integrity, and keeps you grounded through the legal process made all the difference. Thanks to her expertise and guidance, I was able to walk away with not just a fair resolution, but also my peace of mind intact. I’m incredibly grateful and would recommend Delaney Roberts without hesitation to anyone needing family law support.

I highly recommend Blaise and the team at Delaney Roberts to anyone in need of expert legal representation delivered with empathy and integrity. Thank you for everything!

I cannot thank Blaise Minter and the incredible team at Delaney Roberts enough for their unwavering support and expertise during what has been an incredibly difficult few years. From start to finish, Blaise provided clear, compassionate, and strategic guidance, ensuring I felt informed and empowered every step of the way. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and deep understanding of the legal complexities made a world of difference, and I always felt like I had a team genuinely invested in achieving the best outcome for me. The support and care I received went beyond just legal advice—it was truly reassuring to know I had such a dedicated team by my side.

Her professionalism and expertise made a stressful situation much more manageable, and I truly appreciated her clear guidance and support.

I had the pleasure of working with Simone Johnson for a parenting mediation that resulted in consent orders, and I couldn’t be more grateful for her assistance. She was incredibly quick with her responses, always helpful, and provided constant reassurance throughout the process. I highly recommend Simone Johnson to anyone in need of a reliable and compassionate lawyer.

I highly recommend Kaya for her professionalism and expertise in family law.

I recently left a Defacto relationship. I was lost and confused about what my options were and what my next move should be. After seeking advice from Kaya Huseyin I was able to take the right steps to achieve the best outcome for an awful situation.

I was very pleased with Shree’s advice, timely responses, and negotiation skills. Highly recommend Shree Gaikwad and the Delaney Roberts team.

My ex-partner filed an application in the family court for our children and I didn’t know how to go about dealing with it. I was lost and overwhelmed with it all and made an enquiry with Delaney Roberts. Shree explained the process to me in clear terms, prepared my response documents and negotiated an agreement on my behalf with my ex’s lawyer without needing to go through with the Hearing.

I can’t recommend her highly enough.

Linsey Wilson was fantastic in helping me to resolve a complex financial settlement. Her guidance and advice was most appreciated.

I received excellent information from the legal assistant, who was very helpful and pleasant.

Highly recommend their services!

I had a great experience with the office! The service over the phone was excellent and the result of my call was very positive and engaging. The lady with the cute accent did an amazing job listening to my enquiries and making sure my kids and I were okay.

Highly recommend Delaney Roberts. Excellent service and expertise!

Brooke made me feel so at ease and explained the whole process moving forward! High recommend.

I am forever grateful for all of Clare’s hard work and commitment that helped alleviate a lot of stress.

Clare was recommended to me in very high regard and her experience, knowledge, dedication and expertise surpassed all my expectations. I felt Clare was personally invested and she was always familiar with my case.

Clare and Briarna were of great help in a very difficult situation :).

I highly recommend this firm and their legal team.

Unfortunately, (I say unfortunately in relation to fact that I needed legal assistance), I have had to engage Delaney Roberts twice in the last three years. On the first occasion Linda acted for me and the second time Rhiannan is now representing me. Anyone who has been involved in family law knows how emotionally draining, frustrating and tiring the process is. When you come out the other side and you worked with Delaney Roberts, you can be confident that you got the best result possible and did so with the absolute confidence it was achieved ethically, with good advice, timely responses and a sound knowledge of the system and an honest appraisal of your situation, and all done without dirty tactics and mud slinging.

Through their services I have been able to reconnect with my children, and I thank them for helping me to do that.

Delaney Roberts Family Law, Claire McAteer and Briarna Albert were a pleasure to deal with. Apart from a few little hiccups along the way, they were understanding and accepting of my situation.

I felt that I had strong support from the team in this very stressful situation.

Clare McAteer handled a very complex and highly challenging situation with respect, insight and while providing reassurance to me throughout. Clare was always approachable, willing to discuss ideas and approaches.

Sharlotte and Kylie made my matter very easy to deal with and I am grateful for their diligence, professionalism and empathy.

She is very child focused and fair on the grounds of equal and meaningful relationships with children and parents.

Linsey Wilson represented me in my family law matter.  I would recommend her to anyone wanting a fair and equal parenting situation with a great outcome with children’s wellbeing at the core of the matter.

From the very first meeting I was instilled with confidence that I had chosen the right place to look after my matter.

Both Clare and Briarna have been nothing but prompt in all communication with myself, which is very reassuring during such a stressful time.

Went above and beyond to make a difficult time in my life as smooth and friendly as possible.

Absolute thorough and professional effort from the team at Delany Roberts.  Would highly recommend speaking with Linsey, Sharlotte and the team for your family law needs.

I would recommend Anna to anyone. A genuinely good person and very professional.

Clare was really thorough and helped me navigate a difficult process. She explained what to expect at each step and she has a really calming presence.

I have no hesitation in recommending the services of Delaney Roberts. The agency was friendly and easy to deal with. The advice was clear and timely.

I have loved Clare’s honesty and how she listens and explains things to me all of the time.

She puts in a lot of care and effort for her clients and achieves a good outcome. I have complete trust in her.

I would highly recommend their services to anyone needing to navigate the family law process.

A big thank you to Monique Allan and all of the team at Delaney Roberts for all of their efforts to provide us with expert help and advice in a very difficult time. Monique is extremely dedicated and put in significant effort to lead us through the legal framework in order to achieve the best possible results.

I like to thank you very much for your assistance and support during this period. Very much appreciate all you have done.

From my perspective you are light years ahead of the competition. It is so good to see a professional with such great customer service, who can communicate in a calm clear manner, especially when I am and usually a bit emotional.

You were actually referred to me by one of your previous clients. Just goes to show how strong word of mouth is, especially in this town. There are now more people running around Newcastle saying what a terrific job you do. Keep up the good work, I look forward to continuing to work with you on my matter.

My sincere gratitude for getting this arranged with commensurate alacrity, it is thoroughly appreciated!.

Thank you very much for your advice and and support during the last 2 years. I am pleased to have settled the matter. It’s appreciated and I will highly recommend you.

A true champion of your profession.

Thank you very much for all you have done for me. I had the best nights sleep I’ve had in 4 years last night. Once again thank you for your patience and attitude and commitment for a positive outcome.

Linsey’s youth belies her strong organisational skills, eye for detail, steadiness, sensitivity to my mental health issues and overall capacity for support and understanding of my situation.

Nobody wants to find themselves going through a legal ‘battle’, post separation. It’s draining, painful, lengthy, ridiculously expensive and to be avoided if at all possible. However, my super capable solicitor, Linsey Wilson, at Delaney Roberts Family Lawyers, helped guide me through about nine months of negotiation and some sometimes shocking behaviour from my ex and her lawyer.

She wasn’t fixated on going to court at all costs and helped guide me to a sensible solution, reached after just one day in front of the Newcastle family court registrar. That is what you pay for, in my opinion, and Delaney Roberts Family Lawyers got me through a difficult financial settlement and subsequent agreement over parenting orders with guile, intelligence and not a little kindness. Linsey helped me settle before the costs (financial and emotional) got even greater, so I’ll always be grateful for that. As will my two young daughters, with whom I can now concentrate on having happy times, 50% of the time.

You managed the unique complexities of my case whilst providing professional advice, support, understanding and knowledge.

I would like to thank you for very much for providing me with exceptional representation in my family law matter. Your approach to the issues and providing explanation and direction really helped put me at ease throughout the process.

Clare, you are amazing you have just given our family the best Christmas present ever.

Thank you so much for your advice. It was very helpful. Your advice was great! I’m disappointed my past family court lawyer and the past criminal solicitor did not think of this course of action over the previous month or so!

Anna made me feel like I was in control.

Anna talked me through to procedures required, organized all the paperwork involved and made me feel like I was in control. She knew exactly what had to be done and kept in touch through the entire process. I found her to be very understanding and professional during this rather difficult time in my life.

Watching you do your thing, was awe inspiring. You have given me so much confidence in getting what I and my son truly deserve.

First of all, I want to thank you for the amazing support and guidance you gave me yesterday. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

My experience with Clare McAteer and staff at Delaney Roberts Specialist Family Lawyers has been excellent.

I needed Legal help at the last minute and Clare worked with great effort to get me the results that I needed. Clare and team have been professional, efficient and honest. Clare has kept me informed every step of the way and made this very difficult time in my life a lot easier. I highly recommend Clare at Delaney Roberts.

Linsey Wilson and her team of experts at Delaney Roberts where exceptional in understanding my situation and implementing a strong fair case towards custody with my daughter.

During the year it took to complete the final orders to be placed, Linsey went above and beyond countless times and acted immediately after our first consultation which resulted in me being able to see my daughter after 3 weeks of her being withheld. I wish that no parent will have to endure what myself & my daughter have had to go through, but with the help & guidance of Linsey this process was made with assurance for an end result. So again a great outcome for myself & my daughter all thanks bro the fantastic work of Linsey & her approachable team at Delany Roberts.

Clare was informative, responsive and attentive to my needs and always actioned what she said she would.

After an average experience with a previous lawyer, I was humbled by Clare’s assistance in my Family Law matter. I would recommend Delaney Roberts.

I’m so appreciative of the support, guidance and legal advice Monique Allan has provided for my family law matter.

Thank you Monique and Jill. Monique has worked with me through some stressful situations and I highly recommend her not only for her knowledge and expertise, but also for her calm and fair approach during a difficult time.

Linsey was able to help me navigate this unknown territory resulting in a fair and reasonable outcome.

My solicitor Linsey and the team at Delaney Roberts have been highly professional and supportive throughout my family law matter. Thanks again Team!

I have no hesitation in recommending Delaney Roberts and their excellent services. I dealt with Clare McAteer and found that she made complex issues easy to understand.

When deciding who is the best person to represent you and put your families best interests first you can’t go past Linsey Wilson at Delaney Roberts Adamstown. From the day we walked in her office we knew we had the most professional lawyer to guide and direct us to a successful outcome.

There is no limit to the care they show for their clients and to get an email out of business hours to me just shows that they care, just because the lights are turned off in the office doesn’t mean they stop thinking about you!

“I have been dealing with Delaney Roberts for a few months now and I could not be happier with the way they conduct business and the service they provide.
I have had dealings with Clare McAteer and Linsey Wilson and I must say that they are both amazing women and are fantastic in the jobs they do.
Considering the matter that I have enlisted their services, they have never made feel like I was just another case number. Instead I am a person and I matter. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Delaney Roberts. Keep up the great work.”

I can’t recommend Clare and the Delaney Roberts team more! Thank you Clare, you are amazing!

Clare was incredibly helpful and supportive during my consultation. Clare was able to see me at a moment notice to assist me with my difficult separation. Clare was professional, courteous and kind and definitely made me feel much more at ease regarding the process.

I had the pleaser of have Clare McAteer as my Lawyer for my Divorce settlement. I found her very professional and very informative with the process and how legal system works.

My only regret is that I didn’t find Linda immediately after separating.

I came to Linda Hackney at Delaney Roberts exasperated after 18 months of little progress with parenting issues. Linda listened, and then proposed an appropriate course of action that once implemented bought about a resolution that sees my children and I finally have certainty. Linda and her team are professional, thoughtful, compassionate, and get results.

Clare’s knowledge is unrivalled, her bubbly personality reassured me from the start.

It’s with a heavy heart I wrote this review because it means my journey with Clare and Bianca is over. I met the girls during a very difficult time in my life and they were the light helping me navigate through. Bianca was always available to answer any question no matter how random or silly it was. This dynamic duo are the people you want in your corner, they go above and beyond and surpassed my wildest expectations. I hope I never have to use their service again but if I do they’ll be the first people I call on. I love you girls so much, you’re become part of my tribe and you laugh at my jokes what more could someone ask for.
