KMV Lawyers

Hi, I am Kim Vuga

I have extensive experience in Family Law, Criminal Law, Wills & Estates, and Commercial Law, representing clients in complex matters such as domestic violence, traffic offences, drug-related charges, and child protection cases.

My passion for Criminal and Family Law grew from my academic focus and hands-on work with vulnerable populations, including prisoners and individuals experiencing mental health challenges. I’ve also supported the Australian Defence Force and the NT Police CIB Internal Investigations Unit, bringing a strong background in high-pressure, sensitive environments. I also work closely with senior lawyers who have many years of experience in all areas of law that my firm practices in.  My intention is to create a network of lawyers to ensure that you benefit from a holistic approach for all your legal needs

Outside of law, I value fitness and wellbeing, maintaining a disciplined gym routine to stay focused and balanced. I’m dedicated to achieving the best outcomes for my clients, combining empathy, determination, and strong advocacy.

My goal was never just to be a good lawyer – I strive to be a great one.

I highly recommend Kim Vuga and the team at KMV Lawyers. Kim assisted me while I was dealing with the Queensland childcare authority, which was a very stressful situation. She was very quick to contact me whenever needed and always communicated clearly and professionally. Although my matter is not yet closed, Kim has been incredibly caring, supportive, and knowledgeable throughout the process. Her professionalism and compassion have made a difficult time much easier to manage, and I am very grateful for her ongoing support.

Leanner & Matt

Probably one of the best legal advisors and negotiators in the market. I had a complex case, but Kim Vuga helped me by providing clear advice and negotiating on my behalf, which really got things back on track. I just want to say a massive thanks to Kim Vuga for genuinely and patiently supporting me through my case. I would definitely recommend Kim to anyone dealing with a complex matter or looking for high quality legal advice.

Kim was absolutely amazing to work with. From the very beginning she went above and beyond to help me get a default removed from my credit file. It wasn't a straightforward case, there was alot of back and forth between the finance company and the debt collection agency, and it dragged on for several months. But Kim stayed on top ot it the whole time. She was persistent, through and never backed down, even when it got frustrating. What really stood out was how much she genuinely cared, she kept me informed throughout the entire process and always made me feel like a priority. In the end, thanks to her hard work and determination, the default was successfully removed and money owing was halfed. I honestly couldn't have done it without her. If you are dealing with credit issues and need someone who will fight for you and get results.
