Family Law

The members of our family law team at Coleman & Greig have over 40 years of accumulated experience in the field. They are highly regarded for their level of expertise and knowledge in this increasingly complex area of the law.

Coleman & Greig's accredited specialists have particular expertise in working with clients who have complex financial issues such as a family business to consider. It is critical that your solicitor understands the commercial issues that will arise under such circumstances and can deal with other professionals, such as your accountant, to ensure you receive the best possible outcome.

Changes in the law relating to the treatment of superannuation in a property settlement also call for specialist professional advice.

At Coleman & Greig, we have the knowledge and expertise required to understand the unique circumstances of individual clients. We also offer a fresh new approach to resolving family law issues out of court called Collaborative Family Law.

Coleman & Greig's Family Law team have expertise in the full range of family law services including:

  • Providing legal advice on the implications of separation
  • Assisting clients to resolve issues arising from family breakdown outside the court process
  • Mediation and alternative ways of resolving disputes
  • Formalising agreements between separated couples
  • Representing clients in court proceedings under the Family Law Act relating to divorce, property settlement, maintenance and parenting issues
  • Advising clients who have been in de facto or same sex relationships about their rights upon the breakdown of their relationship and representing them in proceedings under the Property (Relationships) Act
  • Advising clients about their rights and obligations in relation to child support and, where necessary, representing them in court.
  • Preparing agreements for clients entering into a de facto relationship or marriage
  • Advising and representing clients who are victims of domestic violence
  • Representing children in contested court proceedings
