Local briefing
We work where you live.Narre Warren, up close
Narre Warren is the civic and retail heart of the City of Casey. Westfield Fountain Gate and Bunjil Place sit on the Princes Highway, Narre Warren station connects Webb Street to the city, and the estates built through the 1990s are now home to a second generation of families. Our office at Level 1, 58 Victor Crescent is in the business park between the highway and the railway line, which puts Berwick, Hampton Park, Endeavour Hills and Narre Warren South within ten minutes.
That mix shapes the work we do here: parenting and property settlements for families sharing a home after separation, visas and sponsorships for one of Melbourne's most diverse communities, leases and business sales around Fountain Gate, conveyancing for a suburb that never stops moving, and wills for households at every stage.
