Family Court Lawyer

  • Divorce & Family Law
John Bui
/
20 June 22

A family court lawyer deals with complex family law as it differs from case to case. One of the most complex areas of law is family law. Additionally, this discipline entails assisting people through extremely trying times in their lives.

A family court lawyer helps clients with:

  • Navigating divorce;
  • Property settlements;
  • Post-separation parenting arrangements;
  • Binding financial agreements; and
  • Child support disputes.

Moreover, if you need mediation, or representation during court procedures, a family court lawyer will guide you to deliver just results.

In this article, we’ll thoroughly discuss a family court lawyer’s responsibilities.

Family Court Lawyer: Australian Family Law

The Family Law Act 1975, covers spousal support, property division, and divorce. This Act governs family law legislation in Australia. It also addresses additional issues such as de facto relationships. Personality may be more important in family law than in other legal specialties for a successful family lawyer.

This is because they routinely meet with emotionally and financially challenged clients. It is a family court lawyer’s goal to assist in dispute resolutions to prevent litigation. A family court lawyer with expertise in the Family Court and the Federal Court Circuit can help by providing legal representation.

What Our Family Court Lawyers Do

Customer satisfaction is a priority in our field of business. While your primary objective is getting the just resolutions you deserve, ours is to see you satisfied with the end results of your case. Here are some of our services:

Divorce and Separation: These are the most painful events that a couple goes through. This is especially true when children are involved in divorce and separation. Our services can help you move on with the succeeding days of your life with ease. Should there be legal proceedings, our job is to help you achieve the best outcome.

Child Custody: As mentioned, divorce and separation involve children. Importantly, Australian family law prioritises children’s welfare. Arrangements for custody depend on the child’s best interests. Also, we offer jargon-free legal advice and support to parents seeking child custody.

Knowing Your Visitation Rights: Not being able to see a child can be difficult for a parent. Knowing your visitation rights can be helpful. 

Need help with imposing supervised visits for a parent? How about setting up visitation agreements? Our family lawyers can address all these concerns.

Financial Agreements: Our solicitors will help divide finance and assets fairly. We have good knowledge of how finance works. Further, we’ll manage details around property, settlements, agreements, superannuation, and more.

Wills and Estate Planning: The passing of a loved one can be an emotional time for everyone in a family.

What’s more, legal matters and disputes can arise among beneficiaries. Sometimes, beneficiaries won’t even be mentioned in a Will. This means that people can contest or challenge its validity. Whether it’s drafting a Will or challenging one, we assure you that you get the best legal aid. 

Family Court Lawyer: Why Fixed Fees Are Efficient

With our fixed fees you can get a clear idea of all legal costs. Our family lawyers value transparency, and hence also provide cost agreements. Efficiency is key to getting the proper legal advice. What’s more, we offer jargon-free legal advice to make the consultation process more efficient.

Mediation Services

Family disagreements or disputes can often be more difficult to resolve and using negotiation is not enough. We offer mediation services to families going through a difficult divorce or family law conflict.

Mediation encourages people to address whatever concerns they have on the spot, avoiding the need for expensive court hearings. It also encourages divorcing spouses to parent collaboratively.

If necessary, we’ll work on your behalf to reach an out-of-court settlement. This is generally in the form of a legally enforceable agreement that all involved parties must follow.

Benefits Of Mediation

Time: Court trials can be lengthy and can last for months. On the other hand, mediation usually settles a conflict quickly.

Cost: The costs of preparing and holding a trial can be saved if a disagreement can be addressed through mediation. Additionally, the defeated party in a trial may be required to pay the winning party’s legal fees.

Flexibility: Parties have more control over the result of mediation. The mediator can design a mediation procedure that is tailored to your specific needs.

Stress: Unlike going to court, mediation is less formal and intimidating.

Confidentiality: Mediation is private. The court can’t disclose a mediation session’s contents. If the matter goes to trial, it is almost never used against a side. (The Court suggests that you talk to your lawyer about mediation).

Satisfaction: The parties determine and agree on the conclusion of their disagreement. Because of this, they are more likely to be happy with the results and to comply with agreements.

Represent You In Court

But what if mediation can’t settle family disputes? The only way to move ahead is to go to court. We can have a family court lawyer represent and defend your rights to get you the best possible result.

We deliver results that meet your requirements while reducing your emotional and financial hardships. This might signify various things to different people.

Litigation is the process of resolving conflicts through the judicial system. This is done by filing or responding to a complaint. Trial procedures can be costly and rough.

As a result, a family court lawyer represents clients in legal proceedings. As solicitors, we not only provide you advice in consultations, but we can also represent you in court.
