Divorce & Separation
Report
Counselling and family therapy can be very useful in assisting people to discuss their separation and to work out care arrangements for their children and how best to finalise financial matters in a respectful and safe environment. We encourage our clients to engage in counselling and family therapy, where appropriate, and often very early on in the separation process.
Same Sex Relationships
Report
Same sex relationships are included within the definition of 'De Facto Couple' in the Family Law Act 1979. This means that same sex couples have the same financial rights and remedies available to married couples and such disputes will be dealt with by the either the Family Court or the Federal Circuit Court.
Financial Agreements
Report
Financial agreements are relevant to both married and de facto (including same sex) couples. However, in order to be binding some strict rules need to be followed, so legal advice may be required. A pre-nuptial agreement is a contract between spouses. It usually covers what is agreed will happen financially during the marriage and upon separation.
Family Estate & Provision Claim
Report
Family estate and provision matters arise if adequate provision has not been made for members of the family of a deceased person from the estate of the deceased person (or a person who meets certain criteria as listed below), the Court can make an order for provision out of the estate of the deceased person that it thinks is appropriate for the maintenance, education or advancement in life of that person.
