Our Family Lawyers
Our lawyers have vast experience in Family Law.

Frequently asked questions
When it comes to separating, sometimes it is necessary for one party to move out.
The difficult decision in such circumstances may be deciding which person moves out and, if children are involved, which parent they should live with.
This is why we always recommend that you get advice early — even before you separate — so that you are armed with full knowledge of your legal rights.
We can guide you with pragmatic Family Law advice in making the right decisions for your future and that of your children.
The Family Law Act applies to everyone whether you are in a legal marriage, or a de-facto relationship (including a same-sex relationship).
Everyone’s personal situation is different and only a Family Lawyer can provide the expert advice which applies to your particular separation.
The cost for a child custody lawyer is approximately $350 – $500 per hour.
The final amount that you could pay for a non contentious matter could be approximately $5000.
For contentious matters, you could pay between $20,000-$30,000 depending on the complexity of the matter.
Organise a consultation on the phone or at our Melbourne or Dandenong office. We will advise you as to how much we estimate your matter will cost and the next action steps that we recommend.
You will then decide as to whether you would like to proceed with our services.
