CJM Lawyers, like its directors, was born on the Gold Coast. The firm was established with a clear focus on delivering high professional standards, strong local knowledge, and personalised legal service.



Since commencing operations in 2014, CJM Lawyers has grown steadily through the strategic acquisition of well‑established legal practices. This approach has allowed the firm to expand its footprint while maintaining continuity for existing clients and communities. Over time, this growth has enabled CJM Lawyers to add new office locations, broaden the areas we serve, and strengthen our professional team. Importantly, when practices have joined CJM Lawyers, the local solicitors and conveyancers clients know and trust have remained, ensuring familiar faces and ongoing community involvement.

Today, CJM Lawyers operates across the Gold Coast, Northern New South Wales and surrounding regions, with a growing team offering a broad range of legal services. Our partners – Kent James, Shannon McLaughlin, Jeffrey Lucas and Jake Jeong are all based in the Gold Coast and have established their professional careers in the area and remain closely connected to the communities we serve.

With accessible offices, an expanding team, and a commitment to personalised service, CJM Lawyers combines the familiarity of a local firm with the experience and capability of a great team to support clients across a wide geographic region. As the firm continues to grow, our focus remains the same – providing approachable, practical legal support.
