Slater and Gordon recognises the vital investigative role Family Liaison Officers (FLOs) play in supporting individuals and families of those who have fallen victim to crime, road fatalities, mass disaster and other life-changing incidents.

FLOs are integral to the process of seeking justice, providing a link between families and legal teams and helping create a supportive environment where those affected can receive additional emotional and practical support.

Our lawyers have appreciated the sensitivity, compassion and impartiality displayed by these professionals in countless cases, during which they have provided information relating to additional services available to families through charities and other associations. Our legal professionals can ensure that in addition to this support, victims receive the best possible independent advice from leaders in the field.

At Slater and Gordon, we want to know about your training and educational events. Our lawyers have regularly provided input and can create bespoke presentations to educate and inform your audience.
