HOW WE CAN HELP YOU

DIVORCE

We can help you determine your eligibility for a divorce, prepare paperwork, and serve notices to the other party on your behalf. Our goal is to simplify a complex process so you can get out of the marriage as quickly as possible and move on with your life.

PARENTING MATTERS

Children are often the innocent victims caught in the crossfire of their parent’s split. We aim to help you reach an arrangement with your ex that is fair and protects the best interests of the child or children, no matter what that looks like. You have a right to a relationship with your child, and we will help you fight for it.

PROPERTY SETTLEMENT

The division of marital assets is one of the most difficult processes after children are considered, and our team is here to help you effectively navigate it. We can assist you in determining the true value of your assets and advise you on what you should and shouldn’t fight for during negotiations with your ex-spouse.

DE FACTO RELATIONSHIPS

Our lawyers have experience in family law for de facto relationships and understand the complexities of separating under these circumstances. Whether you are proving or disproving a de facto relationship existed, need to produce evidence of separation under one roof, or just need general legal advice to finalise your separation, our team can help.

We make things easy, efficient and worry-free.

Property & Finances

Following separation when it comes to dividing up the family assets – the home, super, furniture, cars, the boat, shares, investment properties, etc.. clients describe the process to us in terms like ‘confusing’, ‘a hideous process’ and ‘daunting’.
