WA Family Court – Broome Courthouse court list, law list and court schedule

The WA Family Court Broome list is your essential resource for tracking all matters listed before the Family Court of Western Australia – Broome Circuit, operating from the Broome Courthouse at Hamersley Street, Broome WA 6725 — a country circuit location for Family Court Judges and Family Law Magistrates who travel to Broome on a scheduled basis throughout the year to hear family law matters for the Kimberley region, approximately 2,240 kilometres north of Perth on the Indian Ocean coast. The Broome Courthouse at Hamersley Street is a heritage-listed venue with a remarkable 135-year history in the Kimberley's largest coastal town — the gateway to the iconic Cable Beach, the Broome pearling industry, the red pindan cliffs at Gantheaume Point, and the Cape Leveque wilderness of the Dampier Peninsula — with the Family Court circuit sitting at the same Hamersley Street courthouse used by the District Court, Magistrates Court, and Children's Court, making it the sole full-service court facility for the Kimberley coast.
