    Frequently Asked Questions

    Do you offer remote appointments across South Australia?

    Yes. Remote appointments can be arranged by phone or online where appropriate, allowing us to assist clients beyond the Norwood area.

    Do I need to be divorced before sorting out property or parenting issues?

    Not necessarily. Many parenting and financial issues are addressed after separation and can be progressed before divorce is finalised.

    Will I have to go to court?

    Not always. Many matters resolve through negotiation and mediation. Court may be necessary in some situations, and we will advise you on the appropriate pathway.

    What should I prepare before my first appointment?

    Write down key dates, concerns, and priorities. If relevant, gather financial records and any existing parenting arrangements.

    What happens in a free 30-minute consultation?

    We take time to understand your situation, explain your options in plain language, and outline potential next steps, without pressure or obligation.

    How long will my family law matter take?

    Timeframes vary depending on complexity and pathways chosen (e.g., negotiation, mediation, or court). We provide realistic estimates once your situation is understood.

    How do I know if mediation or court is suitable for my case?

    We discuss both options in your consultation and recommend a pathway based on your priorities, risk, and legal requirements.

    What is an Independent Children’s Lawyer (ICL)?

    An ICL is a legal practitioner appointed by the court to represent a child’s best interests in complex parenting proceedings — and we are experienced in this role. READ >> Independant Childrens Lawyer
