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 separation or divorce changes your family situation, parenting arrangements, shared assets and financial stability can all be harder to handle. Moreover, when there are business interests, blended families or established wealth, a split often becomes more complex. It's normal to be unsure who to trust, particularly if you fear that some lawyers will give confusing advice, impersonal service or needless legal jargon. At Australian Family Lawyers, we focus solely on family law. We explain things plainly, keep an approachable tone and outline your position, your options and the legal steps ahead. 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. Given our experience across diverse cases, thousands of Australian families contact us each year for reassurance when they need it most. We have also been repeatedly recognised as an Australian Law Awards finalist for Law Firm of the Year in 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2025. With us, you can move forward with greater clarity, whether you're searching for "Best Property Settlement Lawyers" or curious about "Brisbane Property Lawyers".
Our team of lawyers has a settlement-first approach for all of our cases because reasonable negotiation and family mediation often avoid placing you, your former partner and your children through disruptive court proceedings. Actually, less than 5% of our matters proceed to 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 "Best Property Settlement Lawyers", "Binding Financial Agreement Lawyer North Lakes" or "Best Separation Lawyer".
You want a clearer picture of what happens next, so we make things easier to follow by starting with a no-obligation, free phone appointment. Then, our team assesses your situation thoroughly in a strategy session and maps out the next course of action tailored to your needs. Should disputes come up about property or parenting, we collaborate with you to secure favourable outcomes. We also negotiate on your behalf and aim for agreements reached by mutual consent. Our team provides continuous guidance should you require further mediation or if the matter escalates to a final hearing, ensuring you know what happens next. Through our family law offices across Victoria, New South Wales, Queensland, Western Australia, the ACT and the Northern Territory, we offer legal services rooted in local understanding that allows us to better serve you. For full transparency, we also provide a detailed Costs Agreement at the outset of our agreement, and we also send updates and regular itemised invoices on legal fees and work completed.

We are thrilled to announce that Australian Family Lawyers is the Platinum Sponsor of the highly anticipated short film, Millie! As proud sponsors, we’re not only supporting the film’s important message but also honoured to hold an Executive Producer credit. Millie, directed by Darren Mort, sheds light on the emotional journey of a young girl navigating the challenges of her parents’ separation. This powerful film, told from one child’s perspective, explores the genesis of childhood trauma and dissociation.
