Property Settlements

Settlement after divorce or separation can get messy when it comes to division of property. We help ease the pain of this process by running everything from the beginning, including negotiating the financial settlement.

Once the divorce financial settlement is agreed, we finalise all documentation with you and file with the Family Court so it becomes a binding court order.

Spousal maintenance

Whether you are in a marriage or de facto relationship, issues around ongoing financial support and loss of access to income can arise. We will give you advice on the ongoing financial contributions you may have to make towards your former spouse, and what you will expect to receive.

If a negotiated settlement cannot be reached, De Saxe O’Neill lawyers are skilled professional litigators who know the Family Court processes inside out. We are well-versed in strategies required to achieve the best outcome.
