Family Law Property Settlement
Options Package

Cutting Edge Advice

Complex property settlements require financial expertise to ensure that you are fully aware of the financial and taxation consequences associated with your property settlement.

Family lawyers tend to concentrate on the division of property on a percentages basis – i.e. whether you get 60% or some other percentage, of the property pool. What this translates to however, in terms of exactly which assets you end up retaining, also needs to be considered with great care.

It may be more advantageous for you to retain some assets over others, depending on your personal circumstances and needs. This is where our expertise is at the cutting edge.

We specialise in empowering you to confidently negotiate all options available to you. We provide you with the knowledge about the consequences, advantages and disadvantages, of accepting different property settlement options. You need to know facts such as how to manage tax; which assets might have inherent tax liabilities; how to structure your new circumstances to protect your assets and suit your needs; and if you can save tax by utilising a child maintenance trust.

We Will:

• Provide an appraisal of all options available to you
• Think outside the box
• Apply commercial reality to your property settlement
• Advise you from a financial as well as legal perspective, which many Family Lawyers have difficulty with.
• Draw upon over 32 years of professional expertise
• Charge a fixed fee for your initial consultation

We can also be engaged to work with a Family Lawyer of your choice.

Initial consultation: $330.00 (plus gst)
Thereafter an hourly rate is charged for advice and recommendations.
