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.

Separating or divorcing can bring a wave of uncertainty, particularly when children, property, finances or long-term plans are at stake. You want answers that help you regain control, but the mix of legal and financial details can feel confusing, especially if your family's situation involves shared assets, business interests or complex parenting responsibilities. Not to mention, you may be concerned about choosing a firm that doesn't have the necessary experience for these cases or that delivers impersonal advice at the very moment you need thoughtful support. We focus solely on family law matters at Australian Family Lawyers, so you won't have to wonder whether your concerns are understood. Our team explains matters plainly and prioritises practical outcomes, easing the load with consistent, straightforward support. You can feel confident trusting our team because, following our merger with Watts McCray and Kordos Lawyers, we're now Australia's largest specialised family law firm and home to a team that includes Accredited Family Law Specialists. Thousands of families across the country reach out to us each year during such emotionally turbulent moments, knowing our award-nominated firm and solutions-based approach equips them to make informed decisions. When you're researching "Separation Lawyers In Brighton" or "Child Custody Solictor Townsville", you can turn to our team for legal guidance.
It's easier to advocate for your parental interests and property rights with a knowledgeable lawyer at your side. While there are many ways to pursue a fair outcome, we lead with a settlement-first strategy, prioritising mediation and negotiation. Through our legal guidance for family mediation, we help you navigate your rights and responsibilities before progressing matters to court wherever possible. As a result, less than 5% of our cases reach a final hearing. Working with our property settlement lawyers, you'll receive straightforward advice about which assets and liabilities form part of your settlement so you can make informed decisions. We can provide specialised legal support to suit your circumstances, especially if your separation or divorce is tangled with family business, trusts and other complex assets. Parenting disputes can also be one of the more difficult parts following a split. Our child custody lawyers advocate for the best interests of both you and your child while helping you understand your rights and obligations throughout the custody process. If you're looking up "Separation Lawyers In Brighton", "Child Custody Lawyers Coolangatta" or "Chinese Divorce Lawyer Near Me", you can turn to us for legal advice, whether you're still in the phase of separating from your partner or already pushing through with a divorce.
We'll be with you at every step, starting with a free, no-obligation phone appointment that helps you understand how things work in family law. Following your initial call, we conduct a strategy session where we review your situation together, then create a plan tailored to your priorities and circumstances. When disagreements regarding property or parenting duties arise, we aim for a favourable dispute resolution and negotiate on your behalf. If the parties are unable to reach an agreement, we'll be there to assist you through every phase, including mediation or, where required, a judge's hearing. We have a national reach, with family law offices offering access to experienced lawyers across Victoria, New South Wales, Queensland, Western Australia, the ACT and the Northern Territory. Our rates are also both competitive and transparent, and we back them with comprehensive Costs Agreements and itemised invoices, allowing you to clearly see the related costs, the scope of work and the professional responsible for every task. You'll also have direct contact with your lawyer, so updates don't get mixed up in the process of relaying messages. For extra clarity, our online Information Centre provides free family law articles, whether you're interested in "Domestic Violence Divorce Lawyer" or "Family Lawyer Penrith". If you've been looking up "family law lawyers" or "divorce solicitors", enquire now.
