Separation is complicated. The legal advice you get should not be


Posted June 1, 2026 by angelabligh12

We know your situation, we track every deadline and we make sure nothing gets missed.

 
Most people come to us having already spent weeks trying to make sense of their situation alone. They have read things online, asked friends, maybe had a difficult conversation with their ex. By the time they call, they are exhausted and no clearer on what they actually need to do. That is exactly the point at which good legal advice changes everything.

We have supported people through divorce in Dandenong and across greater Melbourne for over 25 years. We are a specialist family law firm, which means this is all we do. Every day. That depth of focus shows up in how we handle cases and in the outcomes we get for the people we work with.

Divorce is just one part of the picture

A lot of people treat the divorce application as the main event. In practice, it is often the simplest part. You need 12 months of separation before you can apply, and once you do, the Court process is fairly procedural. What requires real legal attention are the surrounding matters: property, superannuation, parenting arrangements and financial agreements. These do not resolve themselves when the divorce comes through. They need to be dealt with separately and there are strict time limits involved.

We handle all of it

We work with clients from the first phone call right through to final resolution. That means you are not left to piece things together from different advisers or start over with a new firm halfway through.
