25.01.2022 A really helpful article about addressing conflict

24.01.2022 The Australian Federal Police is warning parents NOT to post photos of their children on their first day of school without locking down their privacy settings. ...Images with children in school uniform, their name or indicators of their location in the background can be used by offenders to build a profile and groom parents and children," they say. "The AFP is continuing to regularly seize images of children in the collections of online child sex offenders," they wrote. AFP Commander of the Australian Centre to Counter Child Exploitation and Child Protection Operations Hilda Sirec said the back to school period was a timely reminder to implement safe online practices. There’s no reason why parents and carers cannot continue to take those wonderful happy snaps and post them online. However, we are urging parents and carers who are sharing those images to make sure they’re using secure privacy settings and only sharing images with people they know and trust. Photos posted online of their child’s first day at school can reveal a lot of personal information and travel more widely than intended. Community or school social media pages featuring children are also being urged to consider the types of images being shared and who can view them.

21.01.2022 Some really good resources set out in this article- thank you Listen Talk Resolve

20.01.2022 Paul Doolan and Melissa Gillies SC have it right. The court merger is just a disguise for cutting the court budget. Reducing funding will increase wait times and create more pressure for families who need it most. Stresses on these families is also greater stress on our society, especially children who are the subject of parenting proceedings. More Judges should be appointed to deal with the very complex issues that arise in family law. We need more family consultants to... help the courts work out what is best for children in high conflict parenting cases. Each case should be given the appropriate time to deal with those issues. Mr Porter says a merger will be more efficient and cheaper. We don’t believe he’s come up with the right solution.

19.01.2022 Christmas and school holiday arrangements can be a pressure point for separated parents. Even more so this year, as we are dealing with the added stresses of arranging travel and holidays during a pandemic. Listen Talk Resolve can help facilitate these challenging discussions.

11.01.2022 Parenting agreements formal and informal After separation, some parents are able to maintain communication with each other to a level that they are able to agree on a workable arrangement for their children. Other separated families need some help or guidance on how they can reach an agreement. When parties do reach agreement on parenting arrangements, it is not always necessary to have a formal agreement in place. ... Whatever the agreement is, it should always be child focussed and in the children’s best interests. Let’s face it, parents should know what is best for their children, as parents know their children’s individual needs. Informal agreements can be by way of a Parenting Plan and then there are the more formal agreements in the form of Court Orders that are made with the consent of the parents. If parents cannot reach agreement, then there may be a need for the Court to make Orders but that is always financially and emotionally costly and should be the last resort. Depending on your circumstances, it may be helpful to have a formal agreement in place and in other circumstances, it may be better not have a formal agreement as it can have long term consequences or impact the child’s ability to travel overseas. Our lawyers at Neilan Stramandinoli Family Law can give you advice about the steps you can take to reach an agreement yourselves and whether or not you should document that agreement and if appropriate, how best to document your agreement to suit your needs. Please contact our team if you would like further information and advice about your family law matter on (02) 6152 0493 to arrange a fixed fee appointment with one of our family lawyers. Other Helpful Articles: Please read post on Parenting Plan or Court Order which explains the difference between these two documents.
