Personal relationships and their breakdown can lead to some of life’s most difficult and distressing changes.  We are acutely aware of the pressures and emotional distress which can arise at these difficult times particularly when key decisions affecting your children and property have to be made. We pride ourselves in our ability to assist our clients at the time of their greatest need.

By taking the time to develop a genuine understanding of each client’s individual circumstances, we can tailor solutions and plans that meet your specific needs.

Alternatively, you may be considering entering a new relationship and concerned about preserving your personal and business assets and avoiding the pitfalls should the relationship fail.  We offer tips and guidance of what you need to know when entering a relationship and how to protect yourself when relationships come to an end.

At Panetta Family Lawyers we recognise the need for sympathetic, professional advice and acting on behalf of our clients to ensure their best interests, and those of the people that depend on them, are in safe hands.

Wherever possible, we will try to negotiate a favourable settlement without embarking on a Court determined process but if litigation is necessary, then we can advise and represent you in the Family Court or the Federal Circuit Court.

As part of a full service firm we can advise on and finalise all aspects of the process, including, property settlement, property transfers, sale of property, estate planning and any other issues which arise.

After the initial consultation we will present you with initial advice on your individual situation on financial matters or issues involving children, your options available and the necessary steps you should take.

Panetta Family Lawyers can assist you in your family law matters relating to:

• Divorce and Separation
• Property Settlements and Financial Agreements
• Preparing “out of court” private financial agreements or “prenuptial” agreements to preserve assets in the event of a separation
• Parenting arrangements for children
• Parenting Plans and Consent Orders
• De facto and same sex relationships
• Binding Child Support Agreements
• Wills following divorce and separation
• Representation in Court proceedings should a negotiated settlement not be possible
