Our experienced team is ready to provide advice and representation on various matters, including:

Divorce

Before you can apply to the Courts for a divorce, you will need to have been separated for just over 12 months. However, you do not need to wait until then before commencing the property settlement process.

Financial Agreements

Agreements can be used as a way to protect assets before a relationship (aka prenups), and they can be used as a way to bring finality to financial and property issues at the close of a relationship.

Child Custody

Child custody arrangements and issues of shared parenting need to be negotiated and formalized at the point of separation. The interests of the child always need to come first.

De facto Relationships

De facto relationships have certain issues unique to them that can be different from married couples, including defining when it formally commenced.

Separation

Separation occurs when one party to the relationship communicates that the relationship is over to the other. It is important to mark that date as it will have important ramifications on the time limit when the property settlement can come before the Court.

Spousal Maintenance

Financial support from one partner can, in some situations, be ordered by the Court to be paid to another on an ongoing basis after separation. This is separate from child support.
