Kristie James

Kristie is a highly regarded family law practitioner with over 14 years of dedicated work, making her one of the most experienced solicitors in the Newcastle area. She joined Hebblewhite Lawyers for two simple reasons: she’s passionate about family law and helping people move forward.

Kristie is an expert in high-end financial disputes and complex family law matters, including those involving parenting. A strong indicator of her skill is her unblemished success record in international and interstate relocation cases. Her commitment goes beyond casework: she has served as a Legal Advisor for the Australian Government’s Family Relationship Advice Line and actively mentors other junior solicitors who have gone on to lead their own firms. Kristie combines her diligence in detail with compassion and care, ensuring clients receive clear, confident guidance during difficult times.
