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.

Separation or divorce may affect your children, property, finances and long-term plans. At a time like this, you're dealing with emotional upheaval while you work out what happens next for your assets, responsibilities and future. You may be wondering whether your situation is too complex for a generalist law firm to handle with the nuance you need. Fortunately, we at Australian Family Lawyers are here to support you, focusing exclusively on family law to provide clear guidance backed by extensive experience. Our team of Accredited Family Law Specialists assists with family law matters across a broad spectrum, from straightforward separations to the most intricate, high-asset disputes. With our recent merger with Watts McCray and Kordos Lawyers, we've become the nation's largest specialised family law firm, rooted in a clear, solutions-based approach and genuine care for your peace of mind and best interests. Every year, thousands of families trust us to help them make sense of their position and options. We speak in plain language and focus on practical outcomes, so you can count on our team to help you navigate the Family Law legal system if you've been searching for "Divorce Lawyers Mount Martha" or "Financial Separation Agreement".
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. 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 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 "Divorce Lawyers Mount Martha", "Family Lawyers Campbellfield" or "Family Lawyer Daylesford".
When you reach out to us, you can start with a no-obligation, free phone consultation where we help you gain clarity on the family law process. Next, we'll schedule a strategy session to review your situation more closely and develop a plan suited to your unique needs. If there's a disagreement about property or parenting arrangements, we collaborate with you to reach an amicable outcome. In addition to working towards a mutually agreed resolution, our team prepares you for every stage of the proceedings should the matter progress to further mediation or a final hearing. Our family law offices across Victoria, New South Wales, Queensland, Western Australia, the ACT and the Northern Territory allow us to offer services that are rooted in local understanding. For complete clarity throughout your engagement, we provide a comprehensive Costs Agreement at the outset and follow it with regular itemised invoices detailing both legal fees and ongoing services. You even get direct access to your lawyer, without needing to communicate through an assistant or secretary when you have concerns regarding "Family Lawyer Bendigo" or "Divorce Attorneys In Melbourne". You can also access the Information Centre on our site for free family law articles and insights. If you're curious about "family lawyer price" or "custody lawyer", enquire now.
