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.
Separating or divorcing can bring a wave of uncertainty, particularly when children, property, finances or long-term plans are at stake. You want answers that help you regain control, but the mix of legal and financial details can feel confusing, especially if your family's situation involves shared assets, business interests or complex parenting responsibilities. In addition, you could be anxious about going with a firm inexperienced in these cases or that provides impersonal guidance when considerate support is what you need. Australian Family Lawyers specialises only in family law, meaning you won't need to wonder if we understand your concerns. Our team speaks plainly and prioritises practical outcomes, lifting some of the weight with consistent, direct guidance. You can feel confident trusting our team because, following our merger with Watts McCray and Kordos Lawyers, we're now Australia's largest specialised family law firm and home to a team that includes Accredited Family Law Specialists. Thousands of families across the country reach out to us each year during such emotionally turbulent moments, knowing our award-nominated firm and solutions-based approach equips them to make informed decisions. When you're researching "Collaborative Divorce Lawyer" or "Family Lawyer Inner West", you can turn to our team for legal guidance.
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 wanting to set clear expectations from the outset, our team can draft Binding Financial Agreements (BFAs) so you can enter marriage or partnership with a mutual understanding. Through every stage, you stay informed, supported and able to make sound decisions, whether you're browsing for "Collaborative Divorce Lawyer", "Family Law Lawyers Grafton" or "Family Law Lawyer Leichhardt".
When you reach out to our family law offices for a free, no-obligation phone consultation, we start with clear information so you always know what to expect. You'll receive a comprehensive Costs Agreement that clearly explains our billing structure, outlines the scope of work and provides a personalised estimate based on your specific needs. During your matter, we'll send regular, itemised invoices showing the tasks done, the time taken and the lawyer who handled them. What's more, you're kept updated on any alterations to your estimate as soon as your circumstances change, ensuring you remain in control. Through a cost-effective business model, we strive to deliver exceptional value and service, guiding clients from the initial consultation to settlement and every step in between. There may be occasions when funds are not immediately within reach, particularly during transitional periods, and we get that. Our lawyers are committed to working with you to explore available options at the beginning of your engagement. And with direct access to your lawyer, you're always informed, empowering you to make decisions or gain answers for concerns related to "custody lawyer" or "family law lawyers". You can also browse our Information Centre for articles and resources if you're curious about "Section 60i Certificate" or "Divorce Lawyers Launceston Tasmania", so book a consultation now.

We are thrilled to announce that Australian Family Lawyers is the Platinum Sponsor of the highly anticipated short film, Millie!

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.
