Family & Relationships

We have experts that specialise in separations, relationship property agreements, elder law and powers of attorney.  

When issues arise between family members, it can be a challenging and emotionally heated time for everybody involved.  We can help avoid issues before they arise by negotiating and drafting pre-nupital agreements or other documents like enduring powers of attorney and deeds of family arrangement.  

We can also advise you about what to do when you separate from your spouse or partner, what your rights are and what your obligations are.  Sometimes that means negotiating an agreement but sometimes it means going to Court to sort it out. 

A bit of forward planning by talking about things and making agreements can often prevent later problems. We can help with that.
