Defacto Relationship Law

Separation after a relationship is frequently a difficult time.  It is vital that you understand your rights under the Property (Relationships) Act to enable you to negotiate a division of your property.  We assist you through this procedure, which is frequently successful following Mediation.

Conflicts relating to where children will live and the time they will spend with each parent are dealt with under the Family Law Act.

If you separated after 01 March 2009, your settlement can be finalised under the Family Law Act, following recent amendments.  We provide a low-cost Initial Consultation which is aimed at taking full instructions from you, providing the appropriate advice in relation to your circumstances, and ensuring that you gain the knowledge required to enable you to negotiate a settlement with you former partner.  Every case is different, so don't be influenced by advice from well meaning family members and friends, talk to the experts. 

If you and your former partner have reached agreement on the division of your assets, you can take advantage of our Family Law Property Settlement Package where we assist you to draw the relevant documents to formalise your settlement, with the minimum of fuss, and a saving of time, stress and legal fees.  We negotiate a fixed fee, so you will have certainty as to your legal costs.  The Family Law Act is a Federal Act so we can assist you with your property settlement no matter where you live in Australia.  This Package will only apply if you have separated after 01 March 2009.

Contact us and we will email you full particulars of our Family Law Property Settlement Package.
