We are proud to announce we have been named as a finalist in the Australian Law Awards for Law Firm of the Years 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2025.
Award recipients represent a true cross section of the legal industry, recognising the contributions of the profession’s most senior ranks through to its rising stars.
When family life changes after separation or divorce, parenting arrangements, shared assets and keeping finances stable can be more challenging. On top of that, business interests, blended families or established wealth can make a split more complex. You might understandably feel unsure about who to trust, especially if you're concerned that some lawyers provide confusing advice, impersonal service or excessive legal jargon. At Australian Family Lawyers, we specialise exclusively in family law. We talk plainly, stay approachable and walk you through your position, your options and the legal steps that may follow. Following our merger with Watts McCray and Kordos Lawyers, we're now the nation's largest specialised family law firm, with a leading national team, including a large number of Accredited Family Law Specialists. Having worked on a wide range of cases, we see thousands of families across Australia come to us annually for reassurance when it matters most. We were also recognised as a finalist for Law Firm of the Year at the Australian Law Awards in 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2025. With us, you can move forward with greater clarity, whether you're searching for "Divorce Lawyers Mornington Peninsula" or curious about "Divorce Settlement Calculator Australia".
A settlement-first mindset guides our lawyers through every case, understanding that reasonable negotiation and family mediation can reduce the disruption of court proceedings for you, your former partner and your children. In fact, less than 5% of our matters ever reach a final hearing, with most being resolved through settlement. We provide the legal guidance for family mediation that makes these out-of-court resolutions possible. On the other hand, those looking for property settlement lawyers can trust our team to break down what's included in your property pool, help you identify assets and debts and advise you on securing the fairest possible outcome for your situation. You can also count on our child custody lawyers to advocate for you and your child, and we're even familiar with the specific hurdles faced by LGBTQ+ families in the family law system. For couples seeking clear expectations from the start, we can prepare Binding Financial Agreements (BFAs) so you can enter into marriage or partnership with a common understanding. Through every stage, you stay informed, supported and able to make sound decisions, whether you're browsing for "Divorce Lawyers Mornington Peninsula", "Divorce Lawyers Toowoomba" or "East Coast Family Lawyers".
We know you want a clear, structured path ahead, so we've made every stage as straightforward as possible. Arrange a free phone appointment to talk with our team directly and gain better insight into the proceedings. After the consultation, we'll set up a strategy session where we review your specific circumstances and map out a plan tailored to your needs. Should disagreements over property or parenting arrangements arise, we'll work with you closely to achieve a beneficial outcome. After that, our lawyers negotiate, aiming to secure a mutual agreement. Should efforts to reach an agreement this way prove unsuccessful, we're ready to assist you through mediation or a hearing. With family law offices in Victoria, New South Wales, Queensland, Western Australia, the ACT and the Northern Territory, we bring you access to local expertise across Australia. So that you know where you stand, we're upfront about fees and provide you with a straightforward Costs Agreement and regular itemised invoices. The same clarity applies when you ask us for guidance on topics like "Property Settlement Lawyers" or "Divorce Attorneys In Melbourne". Whether you want to learn more about "family lawyer price" and "family lawyer canberra" or are ready to take action, contact us today.
