Children

Our Relationships team (family law) is a vastly experienced group of lawyers who can advise on all of the legal issues that arise from new or old relationships, including child care and support issues.

The care of children following the end of a relationship can be a very difficult and emotional issue to resolve. We can assist you in reaching an agreement with your former partner as to how your kids will be cared for going forward, including decisions on care and contact.

Key areas of advice include:

Separation – advice around relationships that are at an end (including marriage and divorce) and your rights in relation to money, property, maintenance and children
Children – advice in relation to custody, paternity, adoption and child support, including assisting you through the court process if necessary
Protection – advice around protection from violent partners or under mental health legislation
Claims against estates – advice where there is a claim that a deceased person has not provided for relatives or loved ones in the way that was expected
