“After my meeting with Deano I felt very comfortable and confident, I found that he explained all the details of my case in a way that I could understand. I would like to thank Deano for all his help, and all the hard work.”

How Divorce Law Works: A Simplified Path To Resolution

Free Initial Consultation

In our first meeting, our Brisbane divorce lawyers will address your situation, provide an initial assessment of possible outcomes, explore your options, and outline next steps for a clear path forward.

Develop A Strategy

Should you choose to proceed, we'll dive into all the details, working together to develop a strategy that aims to achieve your goals as effectively and quickly as possible.

Mediation

Mediation is our preferred approach due to its cost and time efficiency, and lower stress levels. Our family law solicitors aim to resolve disputes amicably here, but if necessary, we prepare for family court.

Family Court (If Needed)

When mediation is unsuccessful, not an option or urgent action is required (such as risks to children or property) we move to court, providing you with the best representation possible.

What sets us apart from other lawyers? Our unmatched, proactive strategy.

Law is like chess — success requires thinking three moves ahead, not just reacting to the present situation.

 

The unpredictability of legal disputes means we need to anticipate every possible turn your case could take, preparing multiple contingency plans and responses accordingly.

 

30 years of experience in family law grants us a deep insight into the divorce process, predicting outcomes, enabling us to devise and continuously refine a strategic plan tailored just for you.

 

This proactive approach ensures we’re always prepared, keeping you one step ahead throughout your legal journey. 

 

You’ll work 1-on-1 with a leading family lawyer who can help you and your Brisbane family achieve a fair, fast outcome.

“I can't say enough about them.”
I went to about 5 lawyers before finding Deano. Everyone else just wanted my money and I felt like just another "case". Deano and his team actually cared about us as people. His advice was always to get the best and fairest outcome for everyone.

Currently within family law proceedings, Australia’s legal system is based on no-fault divorce, which means that the reasons for ending a marriage have in the main no bearing on court proceedings.

 

The Court has the authority to grant a divorce if the marriage has irretrievably broken down. To demonstrate this breakdown, the couple must have been separated for at least twelve months and one day.

 

As a result, one’s divorce application cannot be filed before the required separation period has passed. Couples can be separated whilst living in the same household for the entire twelve-month period, known as “separation under one roof.”

 

Couples in this arrangement must provide evidence of their separation to the Court during this time.

In situations where divorce involves children under the age of 18, the Court’s decision to grant a divorce is dependent on suitable care arrangements made on their behalf.

 

This reflects the Court’s primary concern for the welfare and stability of the minors affected by the divorce, reinforcing the legal system’s comprehensive approach to protecting the interests of all parties involved in this process.
