If you are just starting your separation process as one of the 13,000 people in Queensland this year this information may shine some light on what can be a confusing and stressful journey.
The Family Court of Australia handles matters such as divorce, property settlement, child custody, and spousal support.
The process of divorce and separation involves legal procedures for dividing assets, determining child custody arrangements, and addressing financial support.
In determining child custody (referred to as parenting arrangements), the best interests of the child are prioritized. This includes considerations such as the child's relationship with each parent, their safety and well-being, and their views if they are mature enough to express them.
When you separate or divorce,you will need to separate your assets and liabilities fairly. This may include property, financial assets, debts, and superannuation.
It's important for individuals dealing with family law matters to seek legal advice and representation from experienced family law practitioners who can provide guidance, advocate for their clients' rights, and navigate the legal process effectively.

Paul was a calming influence over a really stressful time. Our outcome was successful and our children are now in a co-parenting situation and thriving.

I'd already spent thousands of dollars without a result. Came to AFLM and they put me on a slightly different pathway that worked with my budget. I was happy with the end result. Highly recommend these people.

My children were relocated without agreement. A recovery order was organised through AFLM and I ended up with the kids back and proper orders in place for a third of the cost I was quoted. Check these guys out first before you break your budget.
