We’re here to help

Need further assistance? Our expertise and experience covers all aspects of family law from putting in place financial agreements when entering into a relationship, to the initial phase of divorce or separation, child custody, through to court based resolution where necessary.

Contact us to discuss:

Binding Financial Agreements
A sought after area of expertise for our clients is the preparation of Financial Agreements for relationships commencing (pre-nuptial agreements) and continuing relationships (cohabitation agreements) which provide for the division of assets and financial resources in the event of divorce or separation.

Property Settlements
We work collaboratively with our entire private clients team who are highly skilled in handling complex property structures, trusts, businesses and self-managed superannuation funds to negotiate and finalise the terms of your property settlement.

Parenting and Children’s Issues
This is often the most challenging aspect of a divorce or separation. We take a sensitive and child focused approach to the negotiation of parenting matters. Our expertise enables us to assist clients with child custody arrangements that may involve intrastate, interstate and international relocations.

Child Support and Spousal Maintenance
Often a primary concern in divorce or separation is financial security for our clients and their children. We are able to advise our clients with respect to child support and spousal maintenance.

    The team

    • My lawyer’s support, encouragement and skill over such a long period of time is the reason I received the judgment I did. I know when the stress became too much it was a common and natural response for me to call my lawyer and see what she had to say.

      She did her job but she did so much more at such a traumatic time in our whole family’s lives.

    • I know that we have had the best team ever in helping us through an extremely tough few years. As the kids get older and life moves on,

      I’ll always remember the time and effort you both put in.

    • I just want to say thank you so much for your help. You went above and beyond and helped the kids and I through what has been the hardest year of our lives.

      I’ll never ever forget your endless support and kindness. It’s really meant the world to me.
