Divorce Financial Settlement
The financial implications of a divorce are significantcan be overwhelming, and navigating the settlement process can quickly become messy, emotional and complicated. That’s where Movement Legal comes in. Our experienced divorce lawyers are here to guide you through the process of reaching the best possible financial settlement with your ex-partner.
How Does the Divorce Financial Settlement Process Work?
1) Determine the net asset pool
The first step is to determine the financial resources of both parties, including income, assets, liabilities, and superannuation. Our lawyers can help you collect the necessary documents and information to complete this process.
2) Evaluate the contributions of each party
The court will take into account each party’s financial and non-financial contributions to the relationship, such as income, homemaking, and childcare. Our lawyers can help you identify and present evidence of your contributions, ensuring a fair outcome.
3) Assess the future needs of each party
The court will also consider the future needs of each party, including factors such as age, health, income-earning capacity, and the care of any children. We will help you present your case effectively to ensure your future needs are taken into account during the financial settlement process.
4) Negotiate a fair and reasonable settlement
Our seasoned lawyers are equipped to help you negotiate a just and equitable financial settlement, factoring in each party’s financial resources, contributions, and future needs. If required, we can also represent you in court to safeguard your interests.
5) Formalise the financial settlement
Once an agreement has been reached or a court order has been made, our lawyers can help you prepare the necessary legal documents to formalise the financial settlement, such as consent orders or binding financial agreements.

What Our Clients Have to Say
Andrew:
I engaged Ezra and his team in 2024 for a very challenging and complex property settlement. From day one, Ezra was both professional and empathetic, and he maintained this rare combination throughout the entire process.
Ezra has a unique ability to connect with his clients and instil confidence that their case is being handled with the care and attention to detail it deserves.
I’m very happy with the outcome and would not hesitate to recommend Ezra for any legal matters.
Alf:
I recently engaged Movement Legal and found them to be prompt, their understanding and approach consistent and empathetic to what can be a highly emotional situation.
The logical approach to my situation ensured I knew what the outcomes would be and managed realistic outcomes. I was extremely impressed in the approach and would strongly suggest Ezra and the team.
Johanne:
Ezra was professional, polite, efficient, yet dilligent. He found a way to do things which was the most affordable I'd been offered without compromising the legality and thoroughness of the process. Personally, I was very happy with my experience, and if I ever have to use a lawyer again - oy! - I'll be going back to him.
Stephanie:
Ezra was a delight to work with - he was easygoing, straightforward and had good suggestions.
