Are you moving in together with a new partner? 🌹🏡

It's the perfect time to get a Binding Financial Agreement, to

  • make your intentions clear and
  • potentially save you hundreds of thousands of dollars if the relationship breaks down.

✍️A BFA sets out what happens to the property if the relationship breaks down (e.g. separation or divorce) and how much of the settlement you are entitled to.
💥Our Binding Financial Agreement packages are $2750 incl GST.

Call John on 0429 312 986 to discuss. 📲

Thinking about separating?

The First Steps Separation Package is a fixed-cost package for those taking their first step in family law. If you have a family law concern and don't know where to start, let us support you on your path back to happiness and hope.

Separation can be complex. It is extremely important to obtain specialised legal advice relevant to your situation so that you can make the best informed decision about:

  • the best interest of your children; and
  • your property & maintenance entitlements or obligations.  

The choices you make now can have repercussions long into the future for you and your family. Our lawyers are committed to supporting your to feel empowered on your path to future financial and emotional independence.

After you have made an initial enquiry with us, we are usually able to book a family appointment within 1-2 business days, depending on availability.

Please note the other party will need to seek independent legal advice at their own cost from another solicitor.

Normal Cost: $2500
You pay only: $695

You receive:

One 1 hour appointment with a family lawyer;

A written report advising you about;

As part of our fixed price Wills and Powers of Attorney service we provide:

  • Two half hour consultations with a lawyer
  • Drafting of your will and powers of attorney covering medical, financial and guardianship decisions
  • Documents prepared and signed within 1 week or sooner
  • Final meeting to ensure that all documentation is signed correctly
