What our divorce lawyers in Redland can do for you

Starting divorce proceedings

To start the divorce process, you need to file a petition at court outlining your reasons. We can provide you practical advice on what reason to give the court, how to satisfy the legal requirements for divorce, and how to minimise the risk of your spouse challenging the divorce.

We continue our support throughout the divorce process and will do everything we can to ensure your petition is dealt with as quickly and efficiently as possible.

Responding to your spouse’s divorce petition

If you receive a divorce petition from your spouse, contact our Redland divorce lawyers to protect your interests.

We can help you respond to the divorce petition. Whether you accept the reasons for divorce, or whether you disagree and want to defend or file your own petition, we will provide practical, sympathetic advice on how to proceed.

Arrangements for children

We understand that your children will be central to all your decisions as you go through the divorce process.

Emotionally-charged decisions such as where the children will live are and how they are to be raised often lead to disagreements between separating couples. Our sensitive divorce lawyers are experienced at advising in matters involving children.

We value a child-centred approach which protects your parental rights and ensures any outcome reflects the best interests of your children.

Divorce settlements

We specialise in making the divorce process as straightforward for you as possible. Our divorce solicitors have extensive experience negotiating settlements efficiently while ensuring you receive everything you are entitled to in the divorce.

We succeed even in the most challenging of circumstances, such as matters involving complex financial situations or international divorce.

Where possible, we recommend using Alternative Dispute Resolution methods such as mediation or collaborative law to help you and your ex-partner come to an agreement in a neutral, cooperative environment.

Divorce Mediation

Mediation is a method of Alternative Dispute Resolution by which you and your ex-spouse sit down over a series of meetings to discuss issues arising out of your divorce under the guidance of a trained mediator.

Whether you need to sort out arrangements for your children or discuss how your finances are to be divided, all of this can be done without having to go to court, saving you time, money, and unnecessary stress.

Mediation is beneficial because it enables couples to have constructive discussions in a calm, neutral environment, encouraging compromise and making it more likely an agreement will be struck.

The mediator’s role is not to advise you or your ex-spouse, but to facilitate your discussions and divert any potential for confrontation if possible.

Our trained mediators in Redland are available to provide you with professional divorce mediation services.

Collaborative family law

Where the issues surrounding your divorce are more complex, you may benefit from a collaborative law approach as an alternative to mediation.

Like mediation, collaborative law is a method of Alternative Dispute Resolution whereby you, your collaborative lawyer, your ex-spouse and their collaborative lawyer attends a series of meetings to discuss divorce arrangements.

Unlike with mediation, your collaborative lawyer will be on hand to provide you with advice and help you negotiate the details of your divorce. You can also invite other professionals, such as financial advisors, if you would benefit from their presence.

Our fees for divorce matters in Redland
