Fair Asset Division & Settlements with Your Family Lawyer in Booragoon
Divorce or separation is stressful, and the appropriate division of property and assets adds another layer of complexity. Our Family Lawyers are experts in disentangling complex financial matters for divorcing partners, ensuring an equitable division of property assets.
The ending of a relationship is often fraught with emotional turmoil. Our team assists families in Booragoon with the financial aspects of separation, taking pragmatic steps towards resolution.
Peter J Griffin & Co will offer transparent advice about your legal rights, claims, and options, helping you make informed decisions. We're here to help with various matters, from spousal maintenance and property transfer to asset division, crafting our approach to cater to your unique needs.
Simplified Asset Division & Financial Separation
Dividing assets for separated couples can be difficult if parties do not agree on what's fair and equitable. A thorough process makes it easier for all involved, and our Family Lawyers are here to guide you through it.
Completing property settlements and asset divisions is vital to sever financial ties with your former spouse, allowing you to enter the next unencumbered phase of your life. This process requires adeptness and expertise, qualities our lawyers at Peter J Griffin & Co pride themselves on.
We'll assist you in the following areas:
- Spousal maintenance
- Property settlement
- Asset division
- Property transfer
We recognise that this can be a challenging time, so we commit to finding the best solution for you and your family.
Spousal Maintenance
Are you considering separation, or are you already separated? You may be entitled to or liable for spousal maintenance. If you believe you need to pay unreasonable spousal maintenance or receive the agreed amount, our team can assist you in adjusting your agreement to a fair standard.
Spousal maintenance is financial aid one spouse provides to the other, ensuring a lifestyle similar to that during the marriage. The payable amount varies based on multiple factors, such as the recipient's needs and the payer's capacity.
Our lawyers are well-versed in all aspects of spousal maintenance and can help you reach an equitable agreement, ensuring timely payments.
De Facto Relationship & Separation
Have you recently separated from a de facto relationship? Our team can assist you in sorting out parenting plans and financial asset division.
If the relationship ends, we can advise you on what constitutes a de facto relationship in legal terms and your rights concerning property, maintenance, and children.
The Family Law Act defines a de facto relationship as a couple living together on a genuine domestic basis without marriage. Couples in de facto relationships, regardless of their gender, have similar rights to married couples under Australian law, including property rights and the ability to seek property settlement from the court.
Contact us if you're considering separating from a de facto relationship. We can help you negotiate a property settlement, apply for maintenance, and advise you on your parental responsibility rights.
Legal Advice for Divorce Proceedings
Divorce can be challenging. Beyond the emotional stress of a relationship breakdown, many legal and financial procedures must be handled.
At Peter J Griffin & Co, we support you through every aspect of your divorce, from submitting necessary court paperwork to negotiating a property settlement.
We acknowledge that every divorce is unique and adapt our advice to your circumstances. We're also experienced in mediation, collaborative law, and traditional litigation alternatives.
Are you considering divorce? Contact us today to make the process as seamless and stress-free as possible.

& Estate Planning
Did you remember to revise your Will after your divorce or separation? Here at Peter J Griffin & Co, our comprehensive legal services include areas often intertwined with Family Law situations.
If you've overlooked adjusting your Will after a separation, an unfortunate occurrence like your passing could lead to the unintended transfer of your properties and assets to your former partner or spouse. We highly recommend updating your Will and life insurance beneficiaries when you experience a significant life change, such as a divorce or separation.
