ABOUT US
Our Story, Mission & Vision
The team at Nicholas James Lawyers has spent more than 20 years serving Melbourne's north-west. One firm for every stage of life and business - live local, think big. Our business exists for a simple reason: legal help works better when it is close to home.
We service people, not clients.

We're proud to be community focused, providing dedicated service with a comprehensive perspective. We understand the local landscape while keeping an eye on the bigger picture to secure the best possible outcomes.

What you can expect when you work with us
Practical advice, not lectures

Three offices, one team
Whether you start in Moonee Ponds, Melbourne CBD or Sunbury, you have the whole firm behind you.
OUR SERVICES
Legal Expertise Across Six Practice Areas
As a full-service, general practice, one relationship covers most of what a family or a small business will ever need. Our team advises on family law and parenting arrangements, wills, powers of attorney and estate administration, conveyancing and property, commercial and business matters, employment, and disputes that need resolving - at the negotiating table where possible, in court when necessary.
OUR TEAM
The People Behind Your Matter
Our team brings together the firm's principal, senior associates, lawyers, licensed conveyancers and dedicated support staff across our Moonee Ponds, Melbourne CBD and Sunbury offices. Many of our lawyers have practised in the north-west for years, and several joined us from large city firms - bringing that experience closer to home.
Proudly supporting our communities
Being a local firm means showing up. We are proud sponsors and supporters of clubs and organisations across Essendon, Moonee Ponds, Preston and Sunbury, including Essendon Royals Soccer Club, Melbourne Victory, Preston Lions FC, Essendon Bowls Club, Sunbury Kangaroos and the Sunbury 60 Years Club. If your club or community group is looking for support, we'd like to hear from you.
