Providing tailored advice on child custody
How to care for children after a separation
You want the best for your children and the law is designed to make sure they’re cared for and protected. Regardless of whether you’re married, de facto or in a relationship with someone else, both parents have a responsibility to care for their children after separation. Your family lawyer can help you create a parenting plan that outlines who is responsible for all aspects of your children’s care including their schooling, what religion they’re raised with and who makes decisions about their health.
Child custody
Every family is different, so there’s no set rules about who your children will live with or how often you can see them. Many couples agree what these arrangements will be on their own, while others may need the help of a mediator or a court.
Our Family lawyers can help you understand your rights and draft your parenting agreement. If there’s a disagreement about your child custody arrangements our solicitors can also represent you and ensure you have a fair hearing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, you can change your business structure if you find it no longer meets your needs. Depending on the complexity of your business and the structure you have and want to change to, changing how it’s structured can be relatively simple or may be quite costly.
While it’s not always essential that you have an agreement, for some business structures we recommend that you do have an agreement. For example, a partnership agreement would set out the rights and responsibilities of the partners. Similarly, a shareholders agreement sets out the obligations and rights of shareholders in a company. If you’re establishing a trust, you will need a trust deed to be drawn up.
Some business structures do require specific legal registrations. For example, a sole trader doesn’t have to register their business but a company must be registered with the Australian Securities and Investment Commission (ASIC). Regardless, if you have a business name that you use publicly it may be worthwhile registering your business name.
