Family Law

Family law deals with the legal issues that arise when relationships change — separation, divorce, parenting arrangements, property division and family violence. It is an area where emotions run high and clear legal guidance can make an enormous difference.

Family law specialists in our network handle:

  • Divorce applications
  • Parenting arrangements and parenting plans
  • Property and financial settlements between married and de facto couples
  • Child support and spousal maintenance
  • Binding Financial Agreements (pre-nuptial and post-separation)
  • Family violence and Apprehended Violence Orders
  • Same-sex and de facto relationship matters
  • Surrogacy, adoption and assisted reproduction

Where possible, family law matters are best resolved through negotiation and mediation, which is faster, less expensive and less adversarial than court proceedings. The solicitors we refer to are skilled in both settlement and contested court work.
