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.
If separation or divorce raises questions about any children, property or long-term plans involved, it's reasonable to feel unsure what comes next legally and financially. Shared assets, parenting duties, business ties, blended family dynamics or established wealth can further complicate matters, making you worry about whether or not a general law firm has the experience you're seeking. That's why working with lawyers who focus solely on family law is so important. At Australian Family Lawyers, we assist with a wide variety of family law matters, including higher-asset and more complex disputes. We acknowledge that you could be worried about unclear advice, impersonal service or unnecessary legal language. We speak plainly, remain approachable, and help you understand your position as well as what the next steps might be with more clarity. Following our merger with Watts McCray and Kordos Lawyers, we became the nation's largest specialised family law firm, with a leading national team that includes a large number of Accredited Family Law Specialists. Our approach remains grounded in solutions-based practice and an empathetic understanding of the challenges families face, which is why thousands trust us each year; if you're looking up "Family Law Lawyers Newcastle Nsw" or "Family Law Lawyers Melbourne", you can turn to us.
It's easier to advocate for your parental interests and property rights with a knowledgeable lawyer at your side. We favour a settlement-first approach among the various strategies available to protect you, prioritising negotiation and mediation. Through our legal guidance for family mediation, we help you navigate your rights and responsibilities before progressing matters to court wherever possible. That's why fewer than 5% of our cases proceed to a final hearing. Working with our property settlement lawyers, you'll receive straightforward advice about which assets and liabilities form part of your settlement so you can make informed decisions. When high-value assets, family trusts, family-owned companies and other complex portfolios are involved in the divorce or separation, our team offers specialised legal support suited to your circumstances. Disagreements about parenting can also be among the toughest issues after a split. Our child custody lawyers advocate for the best interests of both you and your child while helping you understand your rights and obligations throughout the custody process. If you're looking up "Family Law Lawyers Newcastle Nsw", "Family Law Lawyers Mandurah" or "Family Law Lawyers Penrith", you can turn to us for legal advice, whether you're still in the phase of separating from your partner or already pushing through with a divorce.
We deliver clear answers, direct access and a legal team that is considerate of your need for transparency. You can start with a free, no-obligation phone consultation where we'll help you gain a clear view of the family law process. Next, we organise a focused strategy session with you to review your situation and map out practical next steps. If disagreements arise over parenting or property, we manage negotiations on your behalf and focus on reaching an efficient resolution. If a case goes to mediation or a hearing, we remain with you through each stage, clearly explaining what's happening and what options you have, so you remain informed. Our family law offices across Victoria, New South Wales, Queensland, Western Australia, the ACT and the Northern Territory mean you get national expertise rooted in local knowledge. No matter what, you'll have direct contact with your lawyer instead of a go-between. You can also explore our free Information Centre for more insights on divorce, parenting orders and more, whether you've been curious about "custody lawyer" or "family law solicitors townsville". If you've been searching for "Child Custody Lawyer Sydney" or "Family Law Attorney In Melbourne" and you're ready to take the next steps, book a consultation now.
