Family, De facto and Divorce Law:-


Unfortunately, marriages and de facto relationships are failing more frequently.  At Pearson and Associates Solicitors we can assist you with any family or de facto relationship issue relating to the following:-


    • Separation;
    • Children's issues;
    • Property settlements;
    • Divorce Applications;
    • Spousal maintenance;
    • Child maintenance;
    • Relocation of the children;
    • Abduction of the children;
    • Contravention of Orders already made;
    • Appearing in Court on your behalf.

Pearson and Associates Solicitors policy is to firstly attempt to settle any dispute that may arise between your spouse or partner outside of the court processes. Pearson and Associates Solicitors has a proven track record in settling many of the areas outlined above at informal settlement conferences or at formal mediation.  One benefit in settling a dispute is that legal costs are kept to a minimum.  We treat our family and de facto clients with the utmost of respect and attempt to resolve the matter to their satisfaction at the earliest opportunity.

Our experience shows that once parties are fully informed of their rights in family and de facto disputes, matters are more easily resolved outside of court proceedings.  Given the nature of family and de facto disputes, we believe it is important to attempt to resolve disputes as quickly as possible, at the least cost possible.


Before you make any decisions involving a family law matter, whether before or during or after the breakdown of a marriage, you should obtain advice from an experienced family lawyer with respect to your rights and responsibilities.


An improperly drafted Agreement or Court Order can have serious financial consequences possibly affecting both future property and superannuation.
