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.
Separation or divorce can impact more than just your emotions, especially when long-term plans, finances, property or children are in the conversation. When parenting responsibilities, shared assets, blended families or established wealth add to the complexity, you're left unsure whether a general law firm has the expertise to handle these nuances. The last thing you want is confusing advice, impersonal service or unnecessary legal jargon that leaves you unsure about what comes next. At Australian Family Lawyers, we focus solely on family law, and we use straightforward language to help you understand your situation, your options and the legal steps ahead. 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 that includes a large number of Accredited Family Law Specialists. In 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2025, the Australian Law Awards named our firm a finalist for Law Firm of the Year. Every year, thousands of families seek our practical guidance during challenging times in their lives. So, if you're searching for "Family Lawyers Wyndham Vale" or "Burwood Family Lawyer", you can count on us.
Our lawyers approach each case with a settlement-first mindset because reasonable negotiation and family mediation can spare you, your former partner and your children the hassle of court proceedings. Notably, fewer than 5% of our matters reach a final hearing, as most of them are resolved through settlement. We provide the legal guidance for family mediation that makes these out-of-court resolutions possible. On the other hand, those looking for property settlement lawyers can trust our team to break down what's included in your property pool, help you identify assets and debts and advise you on securing the fairest possible outcome for your situation. You can also count on our child custody lawyers to advocate for you and your child, and we're even familiar with the specific hurdles faced by LGBTQ+ families in the family law system. For couples seeking clear expectations from the start, we can prepare Binding Financial Agreements (BFAs) so you can enter into marriage or partnership with a common understanding. Through every stage, you stay informed, supported and able to make sound decisions, whether you're browsing for "Family Lawyers Wyndham Vale", "Family Lawyers Greenbank" or "Family Lawyers Archerfield".
You want a clearer picture of what happens next, so we make things easier to follow by starting with a no-obligation, free phone appointment. Next, we arrange a strategy session to go over your situation in detail and outline a plan tailored to your needs. We work closely with you to reach favourable outcomes for when either party can't agree on property or parenting. In addition, during negotiations, our lawyers seek agreements reached by mutual consent. If further mediation or a final hearing becomes necessary, we'll continue guiding you through each stage of the process so you know what to expect. Through our family law offices across Victoria, New South Wales, Queensland, Western Australia, the ACT and the Northern Territory, we offer legal services rooted in local understanding that allows us to better serve you. We also ensure transparency by providing a detailed Costs Agreement at the start of our engagement, regular itemised invoices, and ongoing updates about legal fees and work completed.
