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.

When children, properties, finances and long-term plans are involved in divorce and separation matters, it can be especially overwhelming to handle all at once. Blended family dynamics, parenting agreements, business ties or shared assets can add complexity to deciding whether a firm has the right level of experience for your needs. You might also be unsure who to trust or fear you'll face unclear guidance, impersonal support or complicated legal jargon. At Australian Family Lawyers, we assist people with separation, divorce and family law matters, concentrating on making every stage easier to understand. Our sole focus is family law, so we understand both the practical and emotional challenges involved, including 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 "Family Lawyer Brunswick". 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.
Whether you're still in the process of separating from your partner or moving ahead with divorce, having an experienced lawyer on your side can make it easier to protect your property interests and parental rights. With us, a settlement-first path is taken, built on ongoing negotiation and clarity from the start. Our team assists in resolving parenting and property disputes without escalating matters to court immediately. Through legal guidance for family mediation, we explain your rights, responsibilities and possible outcomes at every stage, and we can also connect you with highly experienced Mediators. Because our family law experts prioritise workable resolutions, fewer than 5% of our cases reach a final hearing. Our property settlement lawyers assist with important financial considerations during separation and divorce, including identifying which assets and liabilities form part of a settlement, advising on spousal maintenance and supporting high-net-worth individuals managing family trusts, business interests and other complex assets. We also help parents navigate child support obligations and parenting arrangements, with guidance from our child custody lawyers who understand the issues that can come with a split. Our team can help you move forward with greater certainty, whether you're interested in "Family Lawyer Brisbane City" or "Family Lawyer Byron Bay".
The process can begin with a free phone consultation with no obligation to commit, where we offer an overview of the family law process. As soon as you decide to move ahead, we can organise a strategy session and identify the next possible steps. Where disputes involve property arrangements or parenting issues, we'll work alongside you to identify practical solutions before taking the matter to court where necessary. We aim to resolve matters through mutual agreement wherever possible, but if a resolution can't be reached, we continue guiding you through every stage of the mediation or hearing process. Our national presence across Victoria, New South Wales, Queensland, Western Australia, the ACT and the Northern Territory means you benefit from both local insight and national resources, including access to family law offices. Our comprehensive Costs Agreement also details all legal costs in advance, including the specific work to be undertaken, the way billing is structured and an estimate of expenses tailored to your specific circumstances. As the process progresses, regular itemised invoices will even be provided to keep you updated on the tasks completed, the professionals involved and the time spent on the work. If you've been curious about "Best Family Lawyers Adelaide" or "Family Lawyers Newcastle", you can also access our Information Centre for articles and insights. Whether you're searching for "divorce solicitors" or "custody lawyer", book a consultation now.
