Dear Paul. I would just like to thank you for your efforts on X’s behalf. As a layman I didn’t think his case was particularly strong. Your dogged persistence and determination should make his life a little easier into the future.

Throughout our dealings with Caitlyn we found her to be a highly professional practitioner who was able to guide us through the conveyancing process with minimal issues. Her solutions to non-standard contract negotiation alterations were always aimed at achieving the best possible outcome whilst still meeting our end state goals. Her friendly manner was always fully appreciated.

FAQs

Common questions about family law

Going through a separation or family dispute is a highly stressful time. Read through our frequently asked questions to better understand the processes involved in divorce, property settlements, and parenting arrangements.

How long do I have to be separated before I can get a divorce in Australia?

To apply for a divorce in Australia, you must prove that your marriage has irretrievably broken down by being separated for a continuous period of at least 12 months.

Do we need to go to Family Court to agree on child custody arrangements?

Going to court is usually a last resort. Parents are encouraged to reach an agreement through family dispute resolution and formalise it using a Parenting Plan or Consent Orders drafted by a family lawyer.

How are property and assets divided after a separation?

The Family Court divides property based on financial and non-financial contributions, as well as future needs. There is no strict 50/50 rule; each property settlement is assessed on its unique circumstances.
