Launch of Page Provan!

Thursday, December 06, 2018

I am delighted to announce the launch of Page Provan, fertility & family lawyers in Brisbane. I am in partnership with Bruce Provan. Our focus remains on achieving quality outcomes for our clients.

For over 13 years I was a partner at Harrington Family Lawyers, first with Julie Harrington and then also with Bruce Provan. In late November, Julie Harrington announced that she was retiring from the practice, effective immediately.

Bruce and I decided in light of Julie’s retirement from the practice that it was appropriate that to reflect the new ownership that it be called Page Provan. I am excited to continue to provide services to my clients and hopefully will do so for many years to come. Our office address of level 12, 239 George Street, Brisbane, has not changed, nor our phone number: +61 7 3221 9544. My email has changed to stephen@pageprovan.com.au.

There can be a keen sense of betrayal when things don’t… Read More »Planning to resolve: ADR in ART
