KIDSPOT: WHAT TO DO IF YOU HAVE DIFFERENT BELIEFS TO YOUR EX ON VACCINATING YOUR KIDS
With children aged 12 and over now encouraged to be vaccinated, and with Pfizer currently investigating the efficacy of its vaccine in those aged 5 to 11 years in the US and Europe, making the choice for your children is a personal one that can be confusing at the best of times.
Is my proposed property settlement just and equitable?
In Family Law property proceedings you will more than likely make a proposed settlement offer in an effort to resolve the matter or to avoid significant legal costs. An offer of settlement can be made at any time if Court proceedings are already on foot or you can file something called an Application for Consent Orders. In both of these circumstances, the Court will consider whether your proposed settlement is just and equitable.

Our top 10 fun activities to do with your children during lockdown.
With the Greater Sydney COVID-19 lockdown extended for an extra week, and announcements made that schools are offering online learning for the first week back after the school holidays, you might have run out of ideas on how to best utilise this time with your children and keep them entertained.

What makes a Family Lawyer, “Collaborative”?
Collaborative Practice involves family lawyers coming together, in a collegiate fashion, and working with each other to have your separation resolved in a manner where positive communication, effective problem-solving and a holistic approach are placed at the forefront.
Whilst a collaborative approach to Family Law is still relatively new in Australia, given the substantial cost and time benefits that it has, many (just like you!) going through this journey are interested in going down this separation pathway.
To this, many legal practitioners are now throwing the term “collaborative” around as a business strategy and acting contrary to what this term is designed to entail.
Don’t confine yourself to one – the benefits of utilising a series of Mediations.
With the recent announcements of changes to the Family Court of Australia, and the ever-existent backlog of the Courts, there is an increased need for you to resolve your dispute through Alternative Dispute Resolution methods outside of Court.
How is an inheritance dealt with during my separation and property settlement?
Inheritance is always a topic of much contention in a separation. It is one of my most frequently asked questions. As is the case in most matters in Family Law, the issue of how inheritance is to be applied is looked at on a case-by-case basis. There are a number of factors to be considered when examining how an inheritance is to be dealt with in a separation.
How you can communicate effectively with your ex-partner.
The finalisation of your divorce or separation may feel like the end of your relationship with a partner. However, that may not necessarily be the case, especially when there are children involved. Moving forward, it is absolutely necessary to maintain positive communication with your now ex-partner.
