Our family law services
Divorce and Separation
If you have separated or are considering separating, we will provide you with practical and expert advice on your legal rights in Australian family law.
Children custody and living arrangements
Every family is different. Whether it is about parenting arrangements (child custody, living arrangements, parent access and contact), planning a move, concerns about the risk of harm to your children, or specific issues about schools, our family lawyers will provide you with advice and support tailored to your situation.
Property and Financial Division
Your property division may be simple or complex, involving businesses, trusts, and pension funds. In either case, we can be of service to you. It is important to get professional legal advice before deciding anything.
Spousal support and maintenance
Spousal support and maintenance usually require urgent court applications. Depending on your particular situation, we will advise you on whether a claim for spousal support may be filed or whether a claim for spousal support may need to be defended.
Divorce Application
Filing for divorce triggers a number of legal time constraints, which may affect your claim for property division and spousal support. We will explain all the procedures and how they relate to each other.
Child support and child support payments
Child support can be confusing. Our family lawyers will help you understand how much child support you should be paying and which payment options are available to you, including whether you should enter into a binding child support agreement and change the amount of child support assessed by the government that you should be paying.
