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 separation or divorce involves children, property or future plans, you might feel uncertain about the legal and financial path forward. When shared assets, established wealth, blended family arrangements, parenting responsibilities or business interests are involved, these cases can be more complex, and you may doubt a general law firm has the experience you need. That's why choosing lawyers who deal solely with family law matters is very important. Australian Family Lawyers handles a broad range of family law matters, including more complex and higher-asset cases. We acknowledge that you could be worried about unclear advice, impersonal service or unnecessary legal language. Our team keeps our language straightforward and stays approachable to give you a clearer picture of your position and options. 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 Lawyer Chermside" or "Family Lawyer Central Coast", you can turn to us.
We take a settlement-first approach for people going through separation or divorce. Through our legal guidance for family mediation, we help you protect your rights while working towards resolutions before matters are escalated to court. Our lawyers can refer you to highly experienced Mediators as well. Because of our focus on negotiation and family mediation, fewer than 5% of our cases progress to a final hearing. If you're working through which assets and liabilities form part of your settlement, our property settlement lawyers guide you through the legal and financial considerations involved. What's more, we provide specialised legal assistance for high-asset separations or divorces that involve family trusts, family-owned businesses or other complex assets. If spousal maintenance is relevant to your situation, our lawyers can advise you on financial obligations after separation. When parenting disputes arise, our child custody lawyers advocate for the best interests of both you and your child while guiding you through custody arrangements. We're also focused on supporting families of every structure with compassionate and skilled representation, including LGBTQ+ families. In addition to end-of-relationship support, we even prepare and draft Binding Financial Agreements (BFAs) to suit your needs. If you're looking up "Family Lawyer Chermside", "Family Lawyer Coolangatta" or "Family Lawyer Chatswood", you can turn to us.
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. We'll then arrange a strategy session to discuss your circumstances in greater detail and develop a customised plan designed around your unique situation. When there's a disagreement regarding property or parenting arrangements, we work closely with you to reach amicable outcomes. Although our team aims to resolve issues through mutual agreement, we also ensure you're fully prepared for every step should further mediation or a final hearing be required. 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. At the beginning of your engagement, you'll receive a comprehensive Costs Agreement, as well as regular itemised invoices, so you remain fully aware of both legal costs and work undertaken. You even get direct access to your lawyer, without needing to communicate through an assistant or secretary when you have concerns regarding "Divorce Cost Nsw" or "Separation Attorney". Our website's Information Centre also provides free access to family law insights and informative articles.
