25.01.2022 #39 Did you know Unless otherwise advised by your solicitor you should always attend court at least 15 minutes prior to your hearing.

25.01.2022 #45 Did you know he’s not paying child support so he can’t see the kids Child support is not paid on the basis that the parent sees the child. It has its own separate legislation and does not change time spending with the children. Your ex-partner may apply to the family court to see the children if you withhold them on this basis.

24.01.2022 #41 Did you know We offer initial consultations for only $50! This initial consultation provides you with some initial advice, how we can help you and the costs for doing so.

22.01.2022 #38 Did you know If your family law matter proceeds to court you may be asked if you wish to instruct a barrister. A barrister is a lawyer who specialises in a particular area of law and will attend your family court hearings. A barrister can not be instructed by anyone other than a lawyer so you must have a lawyer to instruct a barrister.

20.01.2022 #44 Did you know As part of a property settlement, you are entitled to a superannuation split but it may only be for period that the relationship occurred.

16.01.2022 #32 Did you know A divorce is the legal end of a marriage but it does not resolve other issues such as property settlement or children’s matters.

15.01.2022 #33 Did you know The only ground for divorce is the irreconcilable breakdown of a marriage. A husband and wife must be separated 12 months before they can apply for a divorce however property settlement and children’s matters can occur sooner.

13.01.2022 #35 Did you know The 12 month separation period before a divorce can occur is often done under the same roof meaning that both parties are still living in the matrimonial home. The 12 month period starts when you can show you are living independently despite being under the same roof.

12.01.2022 #47 Did you know If something happens in your relationship or with your ex-partner DO NOT post it on Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat or any other social media! If proceedings commence posting anything relating to the proceeding on social media is prohibited under the Family Law Act 1975. Your ex-partner may attach any and all screenshots from social media to their affidavits if your matter proceeds to court.

11.01.2022 #42 Did you know Family law does not always work the way you want it to. Your idea of an agreement may not be accepted by the courts.

11.01.2022 #34 Did you know Infidelity in a marriage or de facto relationship does not alter a property settlement or time spending with the children. It will not be taken into consideration if you cheated or were cheated on.

10.01.2022 #37 Did you know When served with a divorce you can choose to oppose it however that is quite difficult. Given that the only ground for a divorce is irreconcilable breakdown of marriage the only way to oppose it is to show that it has not occurred and you are still in a relationship.

09.01.2022 #40 Did you know In family law, a de facto relationship becomes recognised after 2 years. If you and your partner break up, the relationship existed for more than two years and there are disputes about the assets and liabilities you can instruct a family lawyer.

09.01.2022 #30 Did you know Since changes to the Marriage Act 1961 on 9 December 2017, it is possible for couples to be legally married in Australia, irrespective of their sex or gender identity.

06.01.2022 Happy Father’s Day! We see many dedicated father’s in our line of work and we would like to say thank you for making our job a little bit easier.

03.01.2022 We are back and ready to tackle 2021! We have commenced face to face appointments again. However, if you have been unwell, travelled overseas in the last 14 days or have any reason to believe you have been in contact with coronavirus we ask that you call us and reschedule your appointment to a telephone appointment. Together we can stay COVID free!

01.01.2022 #36 Did you know All assets and liabilities including businesses, credit cards, mortgages and shares will be taken into consideration during a property settlement.

01.01.2022 #46 Did you know In children’s matters, the word custody is no longer used because it demotes ownership. We now use the terms live with and time spending. Live with refers to who the children live with and time spending refers to who spends time with the children.

01.01.2022 #43 Did you know... In family law, retaining kids is considered bad unless there is concrete evidence that the children are in immediate danger in the care of the other parent. If you are taken to court because you retained the children for no real reason you are starting off negatively.
