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 it comes to separation or divorce, you're managing both the emotional impact of a significant change and the need to understand your legal and financial position moving forward. Matters involving shared assets, parenting arrangements, blended families, business interests or established wealth can be complex, leading you to question whether a general firm has the required experience. Often, when seeking legal advice, you may feel unsure about who to trust or concerned about unclear advice, impersonal services or unnecessary legal jargon. As such, at Australian Family Lawyers, we work alongside people facing separation, divorce and family law matters, offering straightforward guidance every step of the way. Our team understands the legal and personal challenges you're facing, and by explaining your position, outlining your options and focusing on realistic outcomes, we help you move forward 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 Lawyers Hervey Bay" or "Family Lawyers Ipswich" 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.
Sorting out parenting arrangements after a separation becomes much more challenging when you and your ex-partner disagree on choices affecting your children. Our approach prioritises settlement, with the goal of resolving disputes without the difficulties and demands of going to court. Through legal guidance for family mediation, we help you become more informed about your rights, responsibilities and options before discussions begin. Throughout the process, we help you understand your legal obligations and available options while working towards outcomes that serve your child's best interests. Our child custody lawyers even assist with child support matters, including private payment agreements, formal disputes and significant changes in circumstances where standard Services Australia assessments may no longer suit your needs. We are also mindful of the particular obstacles that LGBTQ+ families may experience in family law matters, and we strive to deliver compassionate representation that respects every family dynamic. Alongside parenting matters, our property settlement lawyers can help you identify which debts and assets form part of a settlement, particularly when family trusts, businesses or significant wealth are involved. So, if you're browsing for "Family Lawyers Hervey Bay", "Family Lawyers Hunter Valley" or "Family Lawyers Innisfail", know that we're here for practical legal support.
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 explain the family law process so you have a clear understanding of it. Next, we organise a focused strategy session with you to review your situation and map out practical next steps. Should a dispute emerge about parenting or property arrangements, we negotiate for you and strive to resolve matters efficiently. Should a case require mediation or a hearing, we stay with you through each phase, explaining what's happening and what options you have, so you're never left in the dark. 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. In every situation, you'll have direct contact with your lawyer, not 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 "divorce south australia" or "custody lawyer". If you've been searching for "Family Lawyer Winthrop" or "Burwood Family Lawyer" and you're ready to take the next steps, book a consultation now.
