Family Law FAQs

Family law covers legal matters involving family relationships, such as divorce, child custody, financial settlements, and adoption. It ensures legal protections and resolutions for individuals involved in family-related disputes or issues.
Although it is much easier now to make an application for divorce or dissolution, the process does take longer. There is a 20-week time delay between applying for the divorce and making an application for the Conditional order.Â
However, within these 20 weeks, financial and children matters can be resolved. The Final Order can be applied for 6 weeks after the Conditional Order is made.Â
Mediation is one of the key approaches we use to facilitate amicable solutions in family disputes. Our skilled mediators act as neutral third parties, helping you and the other parties involved communicate effectively, identify common ground, and work towards mutually acceptable agreements. Mediation not only fosters open dialogue but also gives you more control over the outcome of your case, rather than leaving it up to a judge in court.
Every separation agreement will be slightly different as they should be specific to you, your partner and your relationship. Some things that are common in separation agreements include:
- Finances
- Debts
- Property
- Child arrangements
- Provisions for future divorce
It’s also important to note that a Deed of Separation would have little impact on any judicial findings – they’re best thought of as a type of contract.
