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.
There can be a lot of stress involved in a separation or divorce, especially when children, shared property, financial commitments or future plans need to be resolved. You may also question how family law relates to your circumstances or what expertise a general law firm can provide when business assets, blended family arrangements or established wealth further complicate the process. Australian Family Lawyers focuses exclusively on family law matters. This provides our team with a well-rounded understanding of the legal, practical and personal complexities that often emerge during separation and related disputes. We know that many people want straightforward answers without having to sort through confusing advice, impersonal service or unnecessary legal jargon, which is why we communicate by speaking plainly and staying approachable from the outset. 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. Our lawyers work across a broad range of family law matters, including higher-asset cases that require careful attention. Whether you've been searching for "Logan Divorce Lawyers" or "Mackay Family Lawyers", our team helps you move forward with clear and steady guidance.
Our team of lawyers has a settlement-first approach for all of our cases because reasonable negotiation and family mediation often avoid placing you, your former partner and your children through disruptive court proceedings. Actually, fewer than 5% of our matters ever make it to a final hearing, and most 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 wanting to set clear expectations from the outset, our team can draft Binding Financial Agreements (BFAs) so you can enter marriage or partnership with a mutual understanding. Through every stage, you stay informed, supported and able to make sound decisions, whether you're browsing for "Logan Divorce Lawyers", "Local Family Lawyer Near Me" or "Lgbtq Lawyer Near Me".
To begin, set up a free, no-obligation phone consultation so our team can help you clarify the family law process and your initial options. Next, we'll arrange a session to discuss your situation and formulate a strategy for the rest of the process. When disputes arise around property or parenting arrangements, our team will guide you through assisted negotiation and dispute resolution with the goal of agreeing through mediation where possible. You and your lawyer should ideally resolve matters through mutual agreement, but if mediation or court proceedings are necessary, your lawyer will guide you through the process. We have family law offices across Victoria, New South Wales, Queensland, Western Australia, the ACT and the Northern Territory. Moreover, we understand that you may not always have immediate access to funds, especially during times of transition. Our lawyers are committed to working with you to explore available options at the start of your engagement. Throughout the process, you'll have direct access to your lawyer, who can answer your questions and provide consistent updates. You may also learn more about topics like "family dispute resolution" or "apply for divorce" through our online Information Centre, which has free family law articles and insights. If you've been browsing for "Family Lawyers Dandenong" or "Prenup Lawyers", contact us today to get started.

Millie, directed by Darren Mort, sheds light on the emotional journey of a young girl navigating the challenges of her parents’ separation. This powerful film, told from one child’s perspective, explores the genesis of childhood trauma and dissociation.
