About Alecia

Alecia Featherstone is a dedicated family lawyer serving North Lakes and Brisbane, and she leads as the Legal Practice Director at Best Wilson Buckley. Alecia's journey as a family lawyer began in 2011, and she has since cultivated a deep understanding of family dynamics through her diverse educational background. Holding a Bachelor of Arts with a double major in Psychology and a Diploma in Children’s Services, her previous experience as a Director of a child care centre provides her with unique insights into the needs of children and families. Alecia chose family law because it enables her to forge meaningful relationships with clients who are navigating some of life's most challenging circumstances. She finds the practice of family law both complex and rewarding, recognising the profound impact her work can have on the lives of her clients and their children. Alecia's commitment to family law stems from her belief in its potential to effect significant, positive change. Clients frequently commend Alecia for her sensitive and responsive approach. She is known for her pragmatic and clear communication throughout the entire legal process. Alecia strives to demystify the intricacies of family law by offering practical advice that is both understandable and empathetic to the psychological challenges of separation. As a parent, Alecia places the welfare of children affected by family law disputes at the centre of her practice. She works diligently with her clients to secure the best possible outcomes for their children, as well as to help them achieve financial security and independence after significant life changes. Alecia finds immense satisfaction in not only resolving legal issues but in supporting her clients through transition with a supportive and enthusiastic team beside her.
