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 matters and separations are stressful situations to deal with, especially when children, properties, long-term plans and finances are involved. Cases involving blended families, parenting arrangements, business interests or shared assets can complicate judging whether a firm has the necessary experience. You may also worry about who to trust or that the advice will be unclear, the service impersonal or the legal language too complex. At Australian Family Lawyers, we assist people with separation, divorce and family law matters, concentrating on making every stage 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 Settlement Australia". 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. Our team can support you through the legal elements of mediation, helping you begin the process with a clear view of your rights and responsibilities. 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. In addition to this, if you're dealing with high-value assets such as family businesses, trusts or significant investments, we offer legal solutions tailored to those specific needs. Aside from end-of-relationship support, our lawyers can draft Binding Financial Agreements (BFAs), commonly known as prenups, that set mutual expectations from the start. Whether you're searching for "Divorce Property Settlement Lawyers" or "Family Law And Property Settlement", you can turn to us.
If you're unsure where to begin, we can help you gain clarity from the very first call. You can call our team for a no-obligation, free phone consultation to get a clear picture of what the family law process will involve for you. Following that, we'll arrange a strategy session to review your circumstances and develop a plan suited to your needs. We also maintain a local presence through our family law offices across Victoria, New South Wales, Queensland, Western Australia, the ACT and the Northern Territory, giving you access to lawyers who are familiar with local considerations within different jurisdictions. We understand family law proceedings can feel financially overwhelming, so we prioritise transparency from the start of your engagement. Your Costs Agreement describes the scope of work, billing structure and a tailored estimate based on your circumstances, and regular itemised invoices and ongoing updates help you stay updated throughout the process. Those browsing for "Divorce Application Cost" or "Separation Lawyer Brisbane" will be glad to know that we operate on a cost-effective model designed to provide better value and clearer pricing from the outset through to settlement. So, if you're interested in "family lawyer canberra" or "family law lawyer fees", book a consultation with us today.
