About us

Introducing

Curae Law is a Perth law firm working in Wills and estate planning, deceased estates and probate, property settlements, debt collection and disputes.

We traded as Birman & Ride for more than 40 years and changed our name in April 2024. Only the name changed. Curae Law is still operated by the same brilliant team and offers the same, quality services you know and love.

Curae Law means:

Close attention

Responsibility, guidance and care

Guardianship

Taking charge and oversight

Healing

Helping you solve legal problems

OUR PURPOSE

Curae Law exists to help people simplify and solve legal problems.

We work across four areas: deceased estates, wills and estate planning, real estate conveyancing, and debt collection. Some of these matters are routine. Some come at the hardest moments of a person’s life. We bring the same care and honesty to both.

Our core values

Be kind

We’re compassionate, but firm when we need to be

We do things differently

Complacency is not our thing

Strive for excellence

High standards are our way of life

Our ten year target

Quality outcomes are important to us.
That’s why we have a big, audacious goal to get 15,000 positive client reviews by June 2033. Read what our clients say here, or help us on our mission by leaving your own review here.

Our future

We’re committed to growing, improving and becoming the best version of ourselves.

We’re not interested in standing still. Every year we look for ways to make working with us clearer, calmer and easier, so a hard time in your life is met with real help.

Our values are not just words on a wall, they’re words we live by. Excellence, for us, is not just getting the law right. It is close attention to the detail, guidance you can follow and the feeling that you are in good hands.

That is the standard we hold ourselves to and the one we intend to keep raising.

Testimonials

What our clients say

Lucy was fantastic and supportive helping us put together our estate planning requirements. Certainly understood complexities each individual situation experiences and communicated exceptionally the pro’s and con’s of directions we could take. With previous dealings with Monica being of the same professional and customer centric standard, I would not hesitate to recommend the team at Curae Law.

Just a quick email to thank you for your time on Thursday. Wills content can be rather dry, but your presentation was extremely engaging. Multiple staff members have since approached me in relation to how interesting and informative Thursday’s topic was. We will certainly be taking on board your feedback and wisdom.

Thank you Nigel, I really appreciate what you have done for me – it doesn’t quite seem real that things have now reached this point. Kind regards.

Laura efficiently guided us through the settlement process for the sale of our property. Her communication skills were excellent keeping us informed of developments and explaining what we needed to do in the next step of the process.
