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 dealing with separation or divorce, you're handling both the emotional strain of significant change and the practical task of assessing your legal and financial position from here. Complex issues such as shared assets, parenting arrangements, blended families, business interests or established wealth can lead you to question a general firm's level of experience. Oftentimes, you might feel uncertain about who to trust when looking for legal advice, or you may be concerned about vague advice, impersonal service or excessive legalese. This is why, at Australian Family Lawyers, we help people navigate separation, divorce and family law matters, offering clear and steady guidance at each stage of the process. We understand that both personal and legal difficulties are involved, so we explain where you stand, talk through your options and keep the focus on practical outcomes so you can take the next step with clarity. Following a merger with Watts McCray and Kordos Lawyers, we have become the largest specialised family law firm in Australia, with a leading national team that includes a large number of Accredited Family Law Specialists. You can ask us about "Family Lawyer Ashfield" or "Family Lawyer Bathurst" and rest assured that you're supported by lawyers with extensive experience across a wide range of matters, including more complex and higher-asset cases.
It's easier to advocate for your parental interests and property rights with a knowledgeable lawyer at your side. While there are many ways to pursue a fair outcome, we lead with a settlement-first strategy, prioritising mediation and negotiation. Through our legal guidance for family mediation, we help you navigate your rights and responsibilities before progressing matters to court wherever possible. Less than 5% of our matters advance to a final hearing with this strategy. 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. We can provide specialised legal support to suit your circumstances, especially if your separation or divorce is tangled with family business, trusts and other complex assets. 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 Lawyer Ashfield", "Family Lawyer Albert Park" or "Family Lawyer Armadale", 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 offer a free, no-obligation phone consultation when you contact us, helping you gain a clearer understanding of the family law process. We'll then arrange a strategy session to discuss your circumstances in greater detail and develop a customised plan designed around your unique situation. If you disagree about property or parenting arrangements, we work closely with you to find amicable solutions. While our team focuses on resolving matters by mutual consent, we also prepare you for each stage of the process if further mediation or a final hearing becomes necessary. 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. To ensure complete transparency, we provide a detailed Costs Agreement at the outset of your matter, together with regular itemised invoices that keep you informed of the progress of ongoing work and any legal fees. You even get direct access to your lawyer, without needing to communicate through an assistant or secretary when you have concerns regarding "Family Law Lawyer Brisbane" or "Toowoomba Family Lawyers". Our website's Information Centre also provides free access to family law insights and informative articles. If you're curious about "family law lawyer fees" or "family lawyer price", enquire now.
