Maria founded the practice on a simple observation from her early years in family law: the legal side of a separation is only ever half the story. The other half is the wellbeing of the people living through it — and Maria built her approach, and eventually her own practice, around refusing to treat those two things separately.

Her reputation was built the unglamorous way — years of hard work, a genuine care for the people in front of her, and a habit of understanding a client's actual situation before offering an opinion on it. That combination of life experience and hard-won professional judgement means clients get more than legal advice; they get someone who has genuinely sat with hundreds of families through their hardest chapters.

Maria's belief that legal and emotional support belong in the same room shows up practically in how the practice is run — working directly alongside experienced family and relationship counsellors, so clients aren't left to find that support somewhere else, at exactly the point they need it least.

For more than two decades, Daniel has sat with people at the hardest crossroads of their lives — and helped them find a way through that they could actually live with. As a Partner at Loukas Law, he's built a reputation less for fighting harder than the other side, and more for bringing a steady, clear head to situations that feel anything but steady.

Daniel's approach is grounded in the belief that the best outcomes come from understanding, not ultimatums. He works as comfortably with business owners untangling complex financial structures as he does with a spouse who's never managed the family finances and feels lost in the process. Whatever side of that you're on, his role is the same: to make sure you're heard, informed, and never managing this alone.

Since 2009, Daniel has focused on the parts of family law that ask the most of people — high-conflict parenting disputes, property settlements, and the financial untangling that comes with starting again. He also supports clients through relocation matters, spousal maintenance, restraining order matters, binding financial agreements, and non-family-law mediations, bringing the same measured, solution-focused approach to each.

Daniel became a nationally accredited mediator in 2013, and in 2025 was accredited as a Family Dispute Resolution Practitioner (FDRP), recognised by the WA Department of the Attorney General — formal recognition of an approach he's practised for years: helping people resolve disputes themselves, with guidance rather than imposition.

Manjot brings a composed, steady presence to matters that often feel anything but steady. Clients describe him as someone who gives them confidence and a clear sense of direction, even when a dispute feels tangled or high-pressure — a quality that translates naturally from the courtroom into the mediation room.

With well over a decade of experience spanning family law, criminal law, and commercial litigation, Manjot has worked across a wide range of matters — from detailed parenting disputes to complex, high-value financial settlements. That breadth gives him a practical, grounded read on a dispute, and a knack for helping people see past the immediate conflict to what actually matters to them.

Before focusing on mediation, Manjot worked as a Principal Solicitor and Senior Prosecutor, which shows up in how he runs a session — thorough, prepared, and unflustered by complexity. That background also gives him a genuinely commercial perspective, useful for clients whose dispute involves a business, a trust, or other financial structure that needs to be properly understood before it can be resolved.

Manjot is a Nationally Accredited Mediator under the National Mediator Accreditation System (NMAS). He is not currently an accredited Family Dispute Resolution Practitioner (FDRP) — in practice, this means he mediates family, property and civil disputes, but any matter that requires a formal section 60I certificate for parenting proceedings is handled by an FDRP-accredited practitioner within the practice.
