Samantha O'Dwyer

Solicitor and Family Mediator

Accepting new clients via ReviewSolicitors

As both a solicitor and family mediator, I always look for innovative methods of resolving issues surrounding divorce, dissolution, and separation, and am mindful of the emotional and financial costs of the parties, and any children, in pursuing matters in an adversarial way. I look to alleviate client stress where possible and to give pragmatic advice in the hope that an amicable solution can be found. I supported the ‘no fault divorce’ which is now in place and have always been a keen member of Resolution. I offer a fixed fee first meeting either in person, over the phone, or via video call. I can help you to know where you stand legally, what the next steps might be, and the likely costs involved. At this point, you can choose to instruct me should you decide to go ahead.

Sam mediated the finances for our divorce

Sam mediated the finances for our divorce. This was over 4 sessions as we were quite far away from each other in terms of what each of us felt was fair. She was matter of fact and always aided us to keep our negotiation on track. Sam was able to keep bringing us back to the matter in hand and we have now reached an agreement. Thanks for your help in getting us to a resolution Sam.

Most grateful

I was very anxious when I first contacted Sam, as it was a very stressful and upsetting time. I had separated from my husband and desperately needed advice on where I stood and what would happen if I filed for divorce. From the moment I spoke with Sam, she was so understanding, kind & reassuring, she talked me through the process and gave me the confidence to proceed. Throughout the process, Sam and her wonderful assistant Debbie, held my hand and guided me every step of the way. Nothing was too much trouble, they were happy to answer all my questions and put any concerns I had to rest. Basically they made a very emotional & difficult experience as painless as it possibly could be and my divorce went through smoothly and quickly. I am most grateful to them both for all their care & support. A truly friendly and thoroughly professional service from start to finish. I can not recommend them highly enough. Thank you!

Samantha O'Dwyer and Debbie Glover are a formidable experienced and professional team at Amphlett. My divorce case has been going on for a long time due to complex issues, however I was guided and advised in such a wonderful and professional manner that ongoing engagement process became lighter, they did all the work and I was able to resume a normal life whilst the process was ongoing without worrying. The case has now been concluded and I am very happy with outcome Sam and Debbie have given my life back. I wish to not only thank them but congratulate them for being a true asset to their firm. I recommend them for matrimonial matters. I have provided a 5 star rating.

I was recommended the mediation service at Amphlett Lissimore, and am very glad I was. Samantha O’Dwyer was efficient, friendly and helpful as was her secretary.

I am so grateful for Sam, she made the horrible process of divorce so much more bearable. She was both professional and caring. I couldn’t praise her and her team any higher.

Great team. Debbie who is the secretary is brilliant and helped me organise what I needed. She arranged an appointment with Sam, who was helpful, friendly but totally professional. Her advise was easy to follow and I felt she had understood my problem. I can highly recommend Amplett Lissimore.
