Family Law encompasses legal issues related to family relationships, such as marriage, divorce, child custody, child support, and the division of assets and debts among family members. It aims to address and resolve disputes within a family setup through legal interventions.

To get an estimate of your specific situation, you can use the Child Support Estimator available on the Services Australia website or contact Daykin Family Law for personalised advice.

To file for divorce, one must submit a divorce application to the appropriate family court. The process typically requires providing evidence that the marriage has irretrievably broken down, demonstrated by a separation period of at least 12 months. 

Detailed requirements can vary by jurisdiction, so it’s advisable to consult legal guidance or the court’s website for specific instructions. 

The primary ground for divorce in many jurisdictions is the irretrievable breakdown of the marriage, evidenced by a continuous separation period of at least 12 months. This approach focuses on the fact of marriage breakdown rather than assigning blame or fault to either party.

Mediation in family law is a voluntary process where a neutral third party, the mediator, helps the disputing parties reach a mutually acceptable agreement on issues such as divorce, child custody, and property division. The mediator facilitates communication but does not make decisions for the parties. 

This process encourages cooperation and can often lead to solutions that are more flexible and suitable for both parties compared to court-ordered judgments.

Child support payments are designed to cover the comprehensive expenses associated with raising a child. These expenses encompass the child’s accommodation, education, medical care, and overall welfare.

The objective is to guarantee that children benefit from sufficient economic support from both parents, addressing their requirements like apparel, nutrition, accommodation, and involvement in after-school activities.
