Nick Sobey, Sophie Paras and Glen Carpenter.

A COOROY-BASED law firm has changed hands.

Sykes Pearson & Miller (SPM) legal practice has merged with Marchoochydore-based Spire Law following the sad passing of SPM's former director, Michael Sobey, earlier this year.

Spire Law director Glen Carpenter said he is pleased to be able to partner with such a reputable law firm.

“SPM is an incredible practice with deep roots in the local community and it’s important that we acknowledge the legacy created by former director Michael Sobey.

“Michael was involved in the firm for over 23 years and built it to a point where it has become the leading law firm in Noosa and is very well connected within the community through its support of many sporting clubs and charities.

“Michael’s son, Nicholas, was admitted as a solicitor in 2020 and works in the practice.”

Glen said it is a “tremendous legacy” and one Spire Law feels a strong obligation to continue.

“We will also continue all current sponsorship commitments to organisations within the Noosa and Cooroy communities and we will look to build new relationships as we embed ourselves in the local community.”

Glen said he is committed to a “business as usual” approach at SPM Law, with all current legal services continuing and adding additional services including family law, building and construction, insolvency, litigation and dispute resolution services.

“We will continue to have a strong and experienced team working from both the Noosa and Cooroy offices, some of whom have been with us for more than 20 years.

“In addition to this, Sophie Paras has returned to SPM after working as a lawyer with Sunshine Coast Council for almost 10 years. Sophie has more than 20 years of experience as a commercial, property, and wills and estate lawyer.

“Across the group, our lawyers have a combined experience in excess of 120 years,” Glen said.

WORLD-LEADING Danish hearing devices are proving popular for those requiring enhanced communication. Compared with previous technology, these devices have been designed for quicker acceptance. And offer a more realistic listening experience. They fit comfortably. And are also less noticeable. They shift you into a world of increased clarity. A world where you better understand what is said. And a world where you’re more aware of your surroundings. They enhance your hearing on the phone. Voices come through smoother and clearer. Everyone can watch TV at a similar volume. You can set the TV to the level others prefer and better follow what’s said. Soft sounds are more audible. So you’ll improve your understanding of people who speak softly. As well as pick up the sound of footsteps from a greater distance. Loud noises receive less focus. So your hearing sounds as comfortable as possible. People will find it easier to talk to you. You’ll better understand what they say. So you can join in on more conversations. The technology is engineered to detect background sounds and transition a portion of them to where they belong — in the background. Less background noise makes gatherings more enjoyable, as your listening effort is decreased. All sounds are processed automatically, so you don’t have to fiddle or press any buttons. Better still, they can be easily recharged overnight. In summary, the technology helps you better connect to the world around you. And with additional speech clarity and reduced listening effort, your quality of life will likely improve.
