divorce
separation and
Separation can feel overwhelming, but we’re here to guide you through it with clarity and care. Divorce is the formal legal end to a marriage, and while it’s often just one part of the process, it’s important to understand your rights and responsibilities from the outset. We’ll help you navigate the path forward with confidence.
settlements
property
Finalising a property settlement is an essential step after separation, whether you're married or in a de facto relationship. We provide strategic, tailored advice to help you reach a fair and legally sound outcome without unnecessary conflict. Our team ensures your financial future is protected with solutions grounded in the Family Law Act.
matters
parenting
Your children’s wellbeing comes first, always. We work with you to develop parenting arrangements that are practical, respectful and focused on your children’s best interests. Whether you're negotiating informally or formalising agreements through consent orders, we’ll support you every step of the way.
agreements
binding financial
A Binding Financial Agreement (BFA), often called a ‘prenup’, can provide clarity and peace of mind for couples at any stage of a relationship. Whether entered into before, during or after your relationship, these agreements allow you to set out how assets and financial matters will be managed if separation occurs. We craft each BFA with care, precision, and your unique circumstances in mind.
