Not Your Ordinary Solicitor

At LWA, we do things a little differently...Take a refreshing look at law services  

  • Locally Owned and Family Run

    Unlike larger corporate and franchise-based Law firms, we adopt a local, family approach. 


    LWA Solicitors was established by a third-generation Cairns local, Lee Williams, in 1974 and is now owned and operated by his son, Euan Williams along with other family members who have joined the team.  


    We love to look after the Cairns community with a professional yet down-to-earth, approach.  Why not support local?

  • Progressive Approach to Law

    Law doesn’t need to be stiff and formalised.  You want a lawyer you can talk to like a normal person who will explain things to you in easy-to-understand ways without making you feel ignorant.  


    At LWA Solicitors, our approach is modern and relatable.  You will receive personalised, affordable, and reliable service from skilled legal professionals.

  • Easy to Find and Park

    Forget the hustle and bustle of the trying to find a car park in the city.  Our Cairns Water Street Office is right next to Wayne Leonard Motorcycles and has ample free parking no matter what time of the day you arrive.

  • We Know Cairns

    Our highly qualified staff are all born and bred Cairns locals.  We understand the Cairns market and have long and well-established connections throughout the community.  


    This enables us to refer you to the right people when needed and ensure you benefit from our local knowledge.
