25.01.2022 The anger is strong in this one! (we are sure he is probably a good bloke though...) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y1Qk6QPzuIc

24.01.2022 Unfortunately, married and de facto couples separate. It can be an emotionally charged experience; we totally get that! (who invited this guy, right?!?) One of the best things someone can do for themselves is to seek legal advice about his or her options (be it property or children) as early as possible following separation. Being provided with sound and friendly legal advice can also help make a difficult time less stressful and assist you to avoid unwanted costs and/or surprises months, or even years later!

24.01.2022 We all know how some of these feel!

23.01.2022 We think it is important to state that despite the US Election trending massively on social media (not that we endorsed either candidate!), we will still act in the best interests of our Australian based clients and have in no way been distracted! #straya

15.01.2022 We are Facebook verified! #strut

14.01.2022 Happy Halloween everyone!

12.01.2022 When couples separate, often they believe the other party will take all of his or her assets or money and vice versa (damn you US television!!). Under Australian law, any property division must be 'just and equitable' having regard to several factors such as financial and non-financial (such as parenting, household work) contributions. Often, a fair property settlement can be negotiated without the need for lengthy proceedings. We take a modern and unique approach that your money is better in your pocket than being wasted on fees.

09.01.2022 One of the challenges often faced by a small to medium sized business is the ability to negotiate a transaction with a larger business. Often the power balance is in favour of the larger business. This challenge is often amplified because the larger business may impose its terms and conditions upon the other party without any argument or scope for meaningful and fair negotiation. One of the options open in such a situation is to obtain affordable legal advice prior to enter...ing into an agreement for a frank, an honest and a worthwhile opinion on any immediate or future risks to a business. Obtaining advice on a proactive basis prior to a transaction occurring can potentially save thousands of dollars once the parties have entered into an agreement. We would much prefer to help at the beginning to provide a business with negotiating muscle before any potential future disputes arise!

08.01.2022 One of the hardest things for a loving mother or father to cope with is to suddenly not be able to spend time with their children after separation (yes ... even when they are watching ABC2 on repeat or their toast is not cut just right!). One of the considerations the Court must take into account is that it is in the child's best interest to have a meaningful relationship with _both_ parents (& ). This consideration is external to any other factors (e.g. payment of ch...ild support). If you find yourself in this situation, we can help to restore a parent spending time with his or her child (or children) as soon as possible to ensure the parent/child bond is not broken. Swift and informed action is the key in this situation and makes it far easier to achieve sooner rather than later! (plus you get to watch ABC2 again and cut toast just right!)

05.01.2022 Where corporate law and family law meet? *drum roll* Sometimes when a family own a business it is setup in a corporate structure, typically with each spouse having 50% of the shares and both being appointed as directors #soundedlikeagoodideaatthetime. The issue that may arise is where one spouse (or both) start to or do act in a way contrary to the best interests of the company (often due to marital or relationship problems), it may cause him or her to unwittingly breach h...is or her director's duties. Not cool. In such situations it is wise to seek legal advice as to what action to (and not to!!) take to ensure you discharge those directors duties and to ensure the asset is preserved for any future division of property.

05.01.2022 When is a contract not a contract? Well the simple answer is this.. when it is not a contract. #captainobvious In certain circumstances a contract or transactions may be set aside; for example, where parties to the alleged contract have a recognised relationship with each other (e.g. parent and child) and the stronger party is presumed to have influenced the weaker party or where one party is at a special disadvantage and other party exploits it or where the transaction (or parts of it) are illegal. So broadly, in those circumstances a contract may be able to be set aside. If so, there may be no contract at all.

02.01.2022 "I want a pre-nup!!" Those sometimes fated words between couples that are planning on entering a de facto relationship or marriage. #awkward In Australia these are called Binding Financial Agreements (but hey, "Binding Financial Agreement" does not sound as bad as a "pre-nup"!) and are a way of both parties protecting their respective assets should the relationship and/or marriage end. However, whilst these agreements can be useful, they must be prepared very carefully and in such a way as to address all financial dealings during the relationship and/or marriage and eventualities thereafter.
