Common questions

What does a family lawyer do?

Family lawyers specialise in matters such as divorce, property settlements, financial agreements, child custody, adoption and family violence. Our role is to provide legal advice, guidance and representation to individuals and families facing complex legal issues within the family, and to advocate for them both in and out of court.

Will I need to go to court?

Not all family law matters require a court appearance. In some cases issues are settled through mediation, negotiation or alternative dispute resolution, which is often faster, less expensive and less stressful. If an agreement cannot be reached out of court, it is likely the matter will proceed to court.
