Family Law

You’re not alone. Divorce now affects 43% of marriages in Australia (Australian Bureau of Statistics 2015) with 20% having been married before. There’s no reliable figures available for de facto and same-sex couples. Family law plays an important part in how these separations take place.

​

If you have separated or thinking of separating, contact us to discuss the following family law issues:

• Separation and Divorce

• Property settlement / Separation Agreements

• Binding Financial Agreements / Consent Orders

• Parenting arrangements

• Child Support

• Spousal Maintenance

• Superannuation Agreements / Splitting

• Domestic Violence / Intervention Orders

​

Thinking of getting married or starting your relationship?

​

Many contact us following separation, however more and more contact us prior to co-habitating or marriage, seeking a sense of security. In addition to marital and de-facto “pre-nups,” there are other things you can do. In family law,  we often say “know where you stand, know where you land.” Speak to us about how to start your relationship off on the right foot.

​

Don’t forget, in family law, blended families or same-sex relationships have their own special considerations. We can help you put things in place to protect your interests for the long-term.
