How long does a typical family legal matter take?
Simple uncontested family law matters typically take 2–3 months. Complex property settlements can take 12–18 months. Urgent protection orders can often be obtained within days. Overall, family law matters take 2–18 months depending on complexity and whether agreement is reached through mediation. A divorce application also requires a separation period of at least 12 months.
Is my information kept confidential?
What should I bring to my first meeting with a lawyer?
What is mediation and how can it help?
Mediation is a voluntary process where a neutral mediator helps disputing parties communicate and reach agreement. It often produces more flexible solutions than a court judgment and is typically less stressful and more cost-effective than litigation.
How does child support work?
Child support helps cover a child’s living expenses, including education and medical care. Payments are based on each parent’s income and the care arrangements in place.
