Whenever a marriage or defacto relationship breaks down, it is essential that each party to the marriage or relationship is adequately advised in relation to their legal rights under the Family Law Act and other relevant legislation. Such advice is essential in enabling both parties to resolve their dispute in the most timely and cost effective manner.

We have been providing clients with Family Law advice for almost forty years, particularly in relation to the areas of:

• Divorce Applications;
• Applications for Property Settlements; and
• Applications for Child Residence and Contact (children’s matters); and
• Child Support Applications and Spousal Maintenance.

If the parties have reached agreement as to the division of assets or issues relating to children we are able to document that agreement in the form of either consent orders or a binding financial agreement and a parenting plan. The solicitors of our practices work with their client to establish the most cost effective means of documenting the agreement between the parties whilst ensuring that the client's legal rights are preserved.

We also provide legal services to clients who are entering into a domestic relationship or marriage and who wish to protect their assets in the event of the breakdown of the relationship by way of a pre nuptial agreement (binding financial agreement).
