Legal Services in Grafton

Grafton is home to Beneke Legal. Our office is at Suite 2, 45 Prince Street, right in the centre of town. As a Grafton-based firm with deep roots in the Clarence Valley, we understand the community we serve and the local courts where we practise every day.

We provide the full range of our legal services from our Grafton office, including family law, criminal law, conveyancing, estate planning, estate administration, estate disputes, and Legal Aid assistance.

Grafton Courts

We appear regularly at the Grafton Local Court for criminal matters including drink driving, traffic offences, AVOs, drug charges, and assault matters. We also appear at the Grafton District Court for severity appeals. We attend the Clarence Valley Correctional Centre for document witnessing, client conferences, and other matters on instruction.

Family Law in Grafton

Family law is our primary area of practice. If you are going through a separation, need help with parenting arrangements, a property settlement, or consent orders, we handle your matter locally. We negotiate directly with the other side and appear in the Federal Circuit and Family Court at the Coffs Harbour and Lismore registries.

Your family law matter stays in the Clarence Valley, handled by a solicitor who knows the local courts and the community.

Conveyancing in Grafton

Buying or selling property in Grafton or the surrounding area? We offer fixed-fee conveyancing with no hidden costs and handle all settlements electronically through PEXA. We also provide guidance for first home buyers navigating the process for the first time.

Estate Planning and Administration in Grafton

We prepare wills, powers of attorney, and enduring guardianship documents, and assist executors with probate and estate administration. If you cannot travel to our office, we can come to you.

If you are involved in an estate dispute or considering contesting a will, strict time limits may apply. Call us for a free initial enquiry.

Most local criminal matters in the Grafton area are heard at the Grafton Local Court, where we appear regularly for drink driving, traffic offences, AVOs, drug charges and assault matters. Severity appeals are heard in the Grafton District Court. Which court applies depends on the charge, and we will tell you at the outset.

The Federal Circuit and Family Court does not sit in Grafton. The nearest registries are Coffs Harbour and Lismore, and we appear at both. Many family law matters are resolved by negotiation or consent orders without a contested hearing, in which case there may be no court attendance at all.

Not necessarily. We prepare wills, powers of attorney and enduring guardianship documents at our Grafton office, and if you are not able to travel to us, we can come to you. Let us know your situation when you get in touch and we will work out the most practical arrangement.

Ask us about your Grafton matter

Send a short enquiry and we will come back to you, usually the same business day. This is a free initial enquiry so we can work out whether we are able to assist you. It is not legal advice, and there is no obligation either way.

Your information is confidential and will only be used to respond to your enquiry. Sending an enquiry does not create a solicitor and client relationship.
