21.01.2022 About 50,000 couples get divorced in Australia each year. Other de facto couples also have to navigate the breakdown of their relationship. The COVID-19 pandemic has increased pressure on many relationships and lawyers are reporting an increase in inquiries about separation, many of which will end up before the family courts, adding to their caseload. #divorce #separation #familycourt https://www.smh.com.au//government-must-act-to-improve-fam

21.01.2022 Not even the late spring cold snap could keep us away from supporting this very worthy cause. Marymead does incredibly important and crucial work with families and children in Canberra. Their efforts are so worthy of support (and our sugar-induced coma from the decadent high tea!) Thanks for inviting us Anna Wynne & Associates #familycounselling #marymead #nextgen #familylaw #annawynneandassociates #parkercolescurtis

09.01.2022 Helena Bonham-Carter might be slightly mad and fashion-challenged, but she has her head and heart in the right, child-centred place when it comes to divorce and child custody. Reflecting on her 2014 divorce from Tim Burton, she won't be drawn on the reasons for the split saying "I have a responsibiity to the children not to talk about that" but confessing "the cruelty of divorce is extraordinary." It’s taken us some time to adjust, but I think it’s really very good now.... At first it’s a horrible thing to get used to, not having your children around [when you share custody].....But then you get to a point where you’re like, Oh, I get this week off! Some parts are very much to be recommended. https://www.theguardian.com//helena-bonham-carter-divorce-

08.01.2022 This morning we hosted our very first guests in our new office this year’s Menslink Business Breakfast. Thank you to @rebeccatetlow and her colleagues at @tetlowlegal for joining us. Between road-testing the pride and joy of the office (the coffee machine!) we were hanging on every word of ESA Commissioner Georgina Whelan’s retelling of her experiences over the recent ‘summergeddon’ of bushfires. Inspiring, humbling and a very good reminder to keep up deposits to your resilience bank #menslink #businessbreakfast #familylaw #willsandestates #parkercolescurtis #tetlowlegal

07.01.2022 Break-ups suck. When you’re in the thick of one, it can feel like your future is bleak and the heartache never ending. Then, the fog clears (believe us, it does!) Suddenly you start seeing the upsides. There is even a teeny bit of freedom and relief that comes with realising some of those lemons life handed to you with your break-up might actually be lemonade No more negotiating what to have for dinner or accommodating the other person’s tastes- hell yes! No more ...haggling over the remote or watching hours of telly you can’t stand - absolutely! More free social time to spend time with your friends and family instead of your partner’s - pencil it in! redecorating your home the way you like - pass me the credit card! This article nails a few more positive ways to look at life after separation or divorce. https://www.harpersbazaar.com//9-reasons-to-feel-positive/

06.01.2022 Children are often the forgotten victims of abusive relationships. Children are affected even if they aren't experiencing or don't see the abuse themselves. Family violence in the home, even when experienced indirectly can leave lasting and difficult negative effects upon children including mental health issues, poor academic performance, substance abuse issues and dysfunctional adult relationships. If you need help getting you and your kids out of an abusive relationship, we are here to help. You cal also call Domestic Violence Crisis Service ACT and 1800RESPECT for emergency assistance.
