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.
Divorce and separation can be overwhelming, especially when children, properties, finances and long-term plans are involved. If there are blended families, parenting plans, business interests or shared assets, it may be harder to determine whether your chosen firm has the appropriate background. You may also feel uncertain about who to trust or worry that you'll be given unclear advice, impersonal service or needlessly complex legal language. Australian Family Lawyers can guide you through separation, divorce and family law matters, prioritising making each step easier to understand. We're familiar with the practical and emotional challenges that arise in family law, as it's our sole focus, and that extends to more complex and higher-asset cases. With guidance on where you stand and what choices you have, you can take action with more confidence. 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. Each year, thousands of families turn to us for support, and so can you if you've been searching for "Divorce Lawyers Maitland". You'll see we've even been named a finalist for Law Firm of the Year at the Australian Law Awards in 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2025.
We take a settlement-first approach because negotiation and legal guidance for family mediation can assist you in resolving property and parenting disputes without immediately escalating matters to court. Through the mediation process, our team can provide guidance about navigating its legal aspects so you understand your rights and responsibilities before moving forward. Because our family law team aims to resolve matters before they reach court, less than 5% of our cases go to a final hearing. Whether you're early in the process or well into divorce discussions, our team can assist you in identifying which debts and assets form part of a property settlement, alongside experienced property settlement lawyers. When parenting matters become complex, you can rely on us to advocate for your child's best interests, with guidance from child custody lawyers. Furthermore, if you're responsible for high-value assets like family businesses, trusts or important investments, we provide legal solutions tailored to those requirements. Alongside support for end-of-relationship matters, we can draft Binding Financial Agreements (BFAs), known as prenups, to clarify mutual expectations beforehand. Whether you're searching for "Divorce Lawyers Manly" or "Divorce Lawyers Redcliffe", you can turn to us.
With Australian Family Lawyers, you get a team that's ready to guide you from the very beginning. You can book a free first phone consultation to speak directly with our team and get a clearer sense of the process with no pressure or obligation to continue. Communication remains direct throughout the process, which means you can speak with your lawyer without needing to go through an assistant or secretary. After that, we'll arrange a strategy session to review your circumstances and map out the next steps together. If conflicts arise concerning property or parenting matters, we'll provide legal support aiming for a positive outcome, commonly through assisted negotiation or mediation. Should matters proceed to the next stage, we'll continue guiding you through the hearing process. With family law offices across Victoria, New South Wales, Queensland, Western Australia, the ACT and the Northern Territory, our team also combines national capability with local understanding. As part of our commitment to transparency, we provide an upfront Costs Agreement and itemised updates, which can be reassuring when you're looking into "Family Lawyers Ipswich" or "Divorce Lawyers Noosa". Additional support is available through our online Information Centre, where you can explore free articles and insights covering key family law topics. If you've been curious about "best family lawyer sunshine coast" or "family law lawyer fees", book a consultation with us today.
