“Marjason & Marjason has been operating for over two years,” says partner Henry Marjason.

“In that time, our firm has doubled in the number of employees and is going from strength to strength.”

The firm was started by the father and son team of lan and Henry Marjason.

“Our clients value that family connection and a lot of people are drawn to the family culture of the firm,” continues Henry.

He describes theirs as “a generalist firm practising in all areas of the law. However, our major areas are conveyancing, criminal law, family law and estate matters.” They also practice regularly in NSW and the ACT.

To give you the full list, the specific areas they cover are:

At the present time they have a total of 11 employees.

“Our staff are a mixture of solicitors, conveyancers and support staff. We are looking to expand on this number in 2019.”

Whilst this locally-based firm might be relatively new, the people are far from new to their professions.

Those 11 people have “over 150 years combined experience in all areas of the law. Ian Marjason has been practising for over 30 years, Gary Robb over 40 years and our conveyancing team over 60 years [between them]. People want experience when seeking legal advice. That is why a lot people seek our legal advice and value our work.”

In terms of being locals, Ian has lived in the region for around four decades, having been based in nearby Bungendore since 1980. This also means Henry was born and raised in Bungendore, before starting his own legal career in Queanbeyan.

The Marjasons and their employees are also involved in supporting local business and clubs around the surrounding regions.

Before it was merged with Queanbeyan council, Ian Marjason was once the mayor of Palerang shire. Ian also served as mayor of the former Yarrowlumla Shire.

Henry says these last two points “reflects in the firm's strong sense of community.”

The office of Marjason & Marjason Solicitors can be found at Level 1, 28 Morisset street, Queanbeyan NSW.
