At Banq Lawyers we are conscience of the fact that today it is not only the practice of Family law which is complex but so are the issues which surround the family unit and the financial consequences Family breakdowns can have.

When we talk of Dipsute resolution, this is one area of the law we strongly recommend this technique is put into place. Lengthy divorce settlements are time consuming and often not necessary. Don’t be convinced that’s it’s the only solution. Speak to the team at Banq Lawyers first and get the best advice you can afford.

You should also be aware that a significant change in the Family Law Act in December 2000 now permits couples to enter into their own financial arrangements, binding upon the Family Court, made either before marriage, during marriage or after separation.
