Strategic Negotiation & Mediation:

Our skilled negotiators are adept at facilitating productive discussions between separated parties. We aim to reach an agreement through out-of-court methods such as:

• Direct Negotiations: We can communicate directly with your former partner or their legal representative on your behalf.
• Mediation: We can guide you through the mediation process, providing a structured environment for you and your former partner to discuss and resolve disputes with the help of an impartial third party.
• Collaborative Practice: We can explore a collaborative law pathway, a process where both parties and their lawyers commit to reaching an agreement without litigation.

Drafting Legally Binding Agreements:

Once an agreement is reached, we will meticulously draft the necessary legal documents, such as Consent Orders or Binding Financial Agreements, to ensure your agreement is legally sound and enforceable. This provides certainty and protects your future.

Children’s Matters Expertise:

The well-being of your children is paramount. We can assist you in developing comprehensive parenting arrangements that address living arrangements, contact schedules, special occasions, and other important aspects of co-parenting.

Property & Financial Settlements:

We’ll help you navigate the complexities of dividing assets, liabilities, and superannuation, ensuring a “just and equitable” distribution that reflects your contributions and future needs.

Court Representation (If Necessary):

While we always strive for out-of-court resolutions, if litigation becomes unavoidable, you can rest assured knowing you have strong and experienced advocates by your side in court.
