Family Dispute Resolution
If you and your partner are separating, or intend to separate, you may wish to attempt family dispute resolution to resolve your family law matter, including property settlement and parenting issues. Family dispute resolution is one form of mediation where you use the assistance of a lawyer to avoid the cost and delay of having your matter heard and determined in the Family Court.
You may attend a family dispute resolution without seeing a lawyer if you feel confident enough to negotiate with the assistance of a mediator. If you do not feel confident or you are uncertain of what you could be entitled to it is important you seek the advice of an experience family lawyer.
How can experienced family lawyers assist with family dispute resolution.
If you’re thinking of using family dispute resolution your lawyer can assist by:
- advising you of the range of entitlement you have regarding property
- advising you as to appropriate arrangements for your children
- assisting you in determining the value of your assets and preparing a balance sheet along with liabilities
- proposing an agreement that can be implemented by you and your partner
- advising you what orders the Family Court would be likely to make regarding your property and/or parenting matter should you go to court, so you are not negotiating from misinformation due to incorrect advice from friends or family or your overly confident partner!
Seeking advice of an experienced family lawyer prior to entering into family dispute resolution can give you greater confidence on the range of matters you can negotiate and the overall settlement.
