Great Counsel.
Great Results.

We invite you to trust us with a confidential briefing on your efforts so far to reach a financial settlement.

Maybe you’ve had many voices in your ear or maybe you’ve been unable to share your situation with anyone.

Perhaps you are confused, frustrated and anxious. Our job is to give you clarity and empower you to develop a sensible path and strategy so you can come to a sensible settlement – with the least amount of stress, delay and  expense.

We’ve helped over 1,000 clients do that and have been humbled by the volume of glowing feedback and testimonials our clients send us. Here are some of them:

Francis

[QLD]

“I recently had the pleasure of receiving a consultation from David Eagle for property settlement and divorce matters.

I am beyond impressed with the level of expertise and support he provided and cannot express my gratitude enough for the exceptional service and guidance David provided. 

Thank you, David, for going above and beyond to help me through this challenging process. Your expertise and support have made a significant difference. I feel equipped to move forward. I am incredibly grateful.”

Amanda

[ACT]

“David Eagle’s advice has been enormously helpful to me throughout my property settlement.

He is a brilliant strategist, his knowledge is vast, and his services are excellent value for money. I highly recommend David to anyone who needs to divide assets following separation.

(I would have liked David to conduct our mediation but my ex wanted another mediator. This meant I was able to seek David’s invaluable advice before, during, and after mediation.)

Jodie

[QLD]

“Highly recommend David Eagle from Fair and Reasonable to help you navigate the road to freedom.

He helped guide us both amicably to maintain dignity and respect, with no BS. I learned more in two hours than I have after thousands of $’s with my lawyer.

David has brought much clarity, options and understanding to me.

Robert

[VIC]

“From first contact with Fair and Reasonable right through to a successful mediation the service and advice received was exemplary. The thorough preparation undertaken by Fair and Reasonable gave me the confidence to enter mediation with a positive mindset. Highly recommended.”

Sarah

[NSW]

“Thank you David Eagle for your support and advice on my case. The sessions I had with David really helped me with my mediation and come to an agreement both of us could accept and move forward with.

I had clear negotiation strategies alongside the legal advice I had from my lawyer, that I could use to put forward my case. Definitely recommend time with David to help with your property settlement.”

Avalon

[NSW]

“I wish I’d found Fair and Reasonable before I burned $6,400 on a lawyer with basically no result.

You made everything so much clearer and practical and my stress levels dropped 75% just from talking with you.”

Gavin

[WA]

“Once I’d reviewed my situation with David at Fair and Reasonable, I managed to work out a sensible arrangement with my ex in a few days. Very relieved. Many thanks.”

Kendra

[NSW]

“I just want to say thank you for all your help and advice. After 18 months getting absolutely nowhere, my ex accepted a counter offer today after I followed your recommendations.“

Angus

[QLD]

“I was astounded to learn how small a part the law plays in settlements. It all makes sense to me now. I’m stunned how quickly you helped us sort out an agreement. We’d been stalled for over 2 years and you found us a deal we could both live with in a few days. We’re both very grateful.”

Siobhan

[SA]

“The way you explained things was not just easier to understand than anything my lawyer told me, but also so much more practical. With your guidance, we are both close to reaching an agreement and no longer see any reason to go through court.”

Marilyn T

[SA]

“I really like how you folk think and explain things. Concise, no bull****, just super sensible advice.”

Marijke

[NSW]

“TBH, before I engaged with Fair and Reasonable I felt helpless and now realise I really had a ‘victim’ mentality. Now, I feel empowered. I know what I’m doing…

I’m not afraid any more.”

Deborah

[NSW]

“David is brilliant. He calmed me immensely and gave me insights and view that gave me the courage I needed at the time to stand strong. He gave me such an emotional lift in confidence within that proved to me I can be brave.”

Albie

[QLD]

“Thank you David Eagle for your advice this morning. My stress levels are through the roof, and your ideas have settled me greatly.”

UPDATE: 

“Woohoo just done the deal 60:40!

David Eagle suggested talking to my ex but my solicitor advised strictly against it. I texted my ex at 2am this morning requesting a chat. The mediation bloodied us both and I think brought us to the table so it was worth it despite not getting close on the day. It did the heavy lifting, leaving a solution staring us in the face.

I am so happy and relieved. The whole process was affecting my health and the prospect of spending the next 2 years living day to day as a 52 year old with a fast diminishing window to create wealth for my retirement was not worth the short term gain.

Thanks again … to David for his advice which ultimately proved correct.

Bert

[QLD]

“I had the pleasure of a consultation with David last week, as I had some concerns that were really giving me some stress. I must say that David’s experience and calm manner really set me at ease and has done wonders for my stress level.

I would heartily recommend a chat with David if you are confused, unsure or fearful of the process. A chat did wonders for my mental health and the mystery of the process.

For anyone concerned about the process, which can seem quite daunting at times, I would highly recommend his services.”

Deana

[NSW]

“I want to say a huge thank you to David Eagle. I reached out many months ago quite distressed, emotionally drained as had been going through something long and messy. I had a lawyer but I needed some outside advise and a fresh perspective on a few issues that was not sitting quite right with me.

David was so incredibly helpful, and gave me some solid advice showing me that my gut instinct was in fact right to question what those points I was concerned about.

This validation, his expertise and sound knowledge combined with an empathic ear gave me the strength and courage I needed push through on a few things and stand my ground, which ensured I had a more positive outcome in my settlement.

I would not hesitate to recommend David – I am forever grateful. Thank you so much David.”

Brenda

[NSW]

“I just wanted to shout out a big thank you to David. I was highly impressed by his knowledge and commitment to giving good advice.

I walked away with some alternative options that I had dismissed prior, and some strategies for moving forward.

Thank you again, and if you are considering speaking to David, just do it, you won’t regret it 🙂“

Karina

[QLD]

“I engaged David to help me prepare for property settlement mediation.

His clear, honest and objective advice were invaluable in helping me work through the issues in our settlement and come up with a strategy for resolving them.

I can highly recommend his services.“

Kristine

VIC

“David’s approach was so real and calm …

I was able to walk away, no more solicitors fees and intense court sessions.

I have my life and health back. I haven’t cried in months. 100% recommend.”

Maggie

[SA]

“l highly recommend David. He clarified a lot of areas l didn’t understand. He made me feel more at ease of process l’m going through.“

Stella

[QLD]

“Talk to David Eagle. His help was fantastic in getting my settlement done.”

Becky

[NSW]

“Highly recommend. The initial free consult call was invaluable and David was amazing. This was a key step in sorting through the confusion of divorce and what is fair and steps and things to do and consider. I got more out of the 3 consults we did than most lawyers. Would highly recommend as part of your settlement strategy.”

Rebecca

[QLD]

“I spoke to David last week. He is generous, encouraging and genuine. He delivered me answers in a tick and that has motivated me big time.

I will recommend David to anyone who feels like it’s complicated. Thank you so much, David, for your help.”

Nicholas

[QLD]

“If you are in a relationship breakdown, and just want thorough communication that breaks through the “grey area bullshit” of the Australian Family Law courts, then definitely have a chat with David Eagle.
 
The process itself is hard, and David made it simple. Breaking through the garbage of “he said she said” and got to the point. That point was “what do we want to achieve,” and he got us there.
 
I would definitely recommend David to anyone that is struggling to understand where to start, because he covered every base. His rates are unbelievably fair and reasonable (pardon the pun), and he will say it straight.“

Maria

[SA]

“Thank you for everything you have done for me, David, you honestly changed my life in such a positive way. I will always be very appreciative to you for your guidance and support.”

Could you do with some help, too?

If you’d like someone to hear your situation, give you some clarity and talk through how you can best move forward with your financial settlement, then book a time to chat (there’s no charge).
