Experienced across all aspects of family law, we’re experts in divorce law. In Australia, divorce occurs when the marriage has “irretrievably broken down”. Couples must separate for 12 months prior to seeking a divorce — this can be completed living under the same roof.

For an Order of the Court to declare you divorced:

  • There must be no likelihood of reconciliation
  • You must show appropriate arrangements have been made for children
  • Financial arrangements may need to be considered

From here, you’ll need to contact a family lawyer to help you through the process. If you’re considering a divorce application, get in touch.

Our lawyers can help you formalise an agreement that can cover: property, children, financial assets, pets, and any other necessary arrangements.

Children of families going through separation or divorce are within the jurisdiction of the Family Law Act. Our family lawyers are highly experienced in working in children matters.

The Family Law Act works to protect children and set them up for the best life possible. So, when it comes to deciding who the child can spend time with, the parameters will be based on what’s best for the child.

The law requires significant consideration of the issues that may affect the child before an order is made. Children who may be within immediate harm are also considered in this law.

The Family Law Act is very complex and it’s best for all parties involved for professional advice to be sought. We strongly believe in getting these arrangements agreed to without the need for court attendance. This can be done by Consent Orders or Parenting Plans. Both have advantages and disadvantages.

Assisting in all areas of family law, we can support you to create a parenting plan or through mediation.

In line with the Family Law Act, our lawyers are highly experienced in supporting clients through property settlements. When a marriage or de facto relationship has broken down, the Family Law Act provides the structure to identify and divide assets from the relationship in a fair and equitable manner.

Property settlements are a fairly complicated area of the law. These can be completed without an application, but final consent orders will need to be sealed by the court. Or, if commenced within the court, the following time limits will apply; within 12 months of the date of divorce or for de facto couples, two years after separation.

You’ll need a family law professional to guide you through the property settlement process. Get in touch today to speak with one of our property lawyers.

Our family lawyers are experienced in the preparation and solicitation of financial agreements. If you’re considering a divorce application, there are many factors you’ll need to consider, including suitable financial arrangements.

The Family Law Act allows married couples and de facto couples to enter into financial agreements. Financial agreements between parties can be made by couples before, during and after marriage. These can be completed via Consent Orders of the Family Court or by private arrangements.

For the best results, you should have clear agreements that have been overseen by a lawyer as well as properly undertaken pursuant to the law. This will ensure that private agreements can be enforced by the court.

Do you need to organise a new will? If you haven’t updated your will in the last couple of years, there is a high chance your lifestyle has changed and you will need an updated will to ensure your assets are distributed according to your wishes when you pass away.

When a person passes away without a will, their wishes are unknown. This will result in their assets being distributed among certain family members, regardless of what the person’s wishes may have been.

Your will is extremely important if you have children, pets, property or other valuable assets.
