Compassionate, understanding divorce lawyers in Sydney helping you to navigate the complexities of divorce and associated matters including separation, child custody, property, and child support.
Sydney’s Divorce & Family Law Specialists
Divorce is a stressful and often complicated process that can take a toll on your mental health and overall wellbeing.
Not only are you coping with the breakdown of a relationship, but the emotional toll that comes from litigation and financial stresses can be especially taxing – especially when property, children, and other legal matters enter the picture.
Heathfield Grosvenor Lawyers are experienced divorce and family law specialists that provide assurance and guidance throughout the divorce process. We handle each care with empathy and sensitivity to ensure you receive the support and representation that you deserve throughout the divorce process.
Submitting an application to the Federal Circuit Family Court Of Australia (Family Court) or Registrar to terminate the Marriage is just one part of the divorce process. Outside of the legal matter of divorce, we provide legal guidance on matters relating to dividing assets, separating property, custody, spousal maintenance, and property.
Understanding Divorce Law in Australia
In Australia, divorce matters are handled by submitting an application to the Federal Circuit Family Court Of Australia or to the Registrar to terminate the Marriage. Before applying for a divorce, you must have been separated for a minimum period of 12-months and – where children are involved – have made proper arrangements for their care before the Federal Circuit Family Court Of Australia will grant a divorce.
Our Sydney divorce lawyers provide guidance throughout the process and help you to understand your rights and obligations in-line with divorce law in Australia.
It is important to understand that finalising a divorce through the Family Court is just one part of the process. From there, our lawyers will provide guidance on matters relating to assets, child custody, spousal maintenance, debts, and all other financial matters.
Financial and custody settlements are a separate agreement that require a process of negotiation and mediation. In matters where both parties cannot agree, the matter will typically result in legal proceedings which are heard in family court.
