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 children, property, finances or long-term plans are involved, separation or divorce can create uncertainty. You want answers to help you take back control, yet the combination of legal and financial issues can be bewildering, particularly when your family's circumstances include shared assets, business interests or complex parenting duties. Additionally, it's understandable to fear ending up with a firm without the right experience for these matters or that offers impersonal advice just when you need considerate support. At Australian Family Lawyers, our sole focus is family law, so you can trust us to 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 turn to us each year in these emotionally difficult moments, confident our award-nominated firm and solutions-based approach will support them in making informed decisions. When you're researching "Divorce Lawyer Fees Australia" or "Divorce Lawyers Cost", you can turn to our team for legal guidance.
Our lawyers approach each case with a settlement-first mindset because reasonable negotiation and family mediation can spare you, your former partner and your children the hassle of court proceedings. Notably, fewer than 5% of our matters reach a final hearing, as most of them are 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 those looking to create clear expectations early on, our team can draft Binding Financial Agreements (BFAs) to encourage a mutual understanding before marriage or partnership begins. Through every stage, you stay informed, supported and able to make sound decisions, whether you're browsing for "Divorce Lawyer Fees Australia", "Divorce Lawyer Price" or "Divorce Lawyer Hourly Rate".
To make things easier to follow and help you see what comes next, we begin with a free phone appointment with no obligation to proceed. Then, our team assesses your situation thoroughly in a strategy session and maps out the next course of action tailored to your needs. We closely work with you when conflicts arise around property or parenting arrangements, advocating for favourable outcomes. In addition, during negotiations, our lawyers seek agreements reached by mutual consent. If we need further mediation or a final hearing, we'll keep guiding you through every stage so you know what to expect. 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. If you're interested in learning more about "Property Settlement Lawyers" or "Joint Divorce Application", you can access the Information Centre on our site for free family law articles and insights.

This powerful film, told from one child’s perspective, explores the genesis of childhood trauma and dissociation.
