Property Law Services for Separations
At Wise Family Lawyers in Perth, we understand that property matters in separation or divorce can be complex and stressful. Our experienced team is here to guide you through the legal process, ensuring a fair and equitable division of assets.
Property Settlements in Separation
Property settlements are a critical part of the separation process. Whether you are married or in a de facto relationship, it’s essential to ensure that assets are divided in a way that reflects the financial and non-financial contributions of each party. We can help with:
Assessing Assets: We help identify and value all assets, including real estate, savings, superannuation, investments, businesses, and personal possessions.
Division of Assets: Our team will ensure a fair distribution based on the financial, non-financial, and future needs of both parties, including any care responsibilities for children.
Debt Responsibility: Addressing joint debts, mortgages, loans, and other liabilities is a vital part of the process. We work to ensure that debts are managed appropriately as part of the settlement.
Superannuation and Property Law
Superannuation is often one of the most significant assets in a property settlement. Wise Family Lawyers can assist with superannuation splitting, ensuring that it is divided fairly in accordance with the legal requirements.
Binding Financial Agreements
A Binding Financial Agreement (BFA) is an essential tool for many separating couples. These agreements allow parties to formalise the division of their assets, liabilities, and financial resources without the need for court intervention. Our team can assist with drafting, negotiating, or reviewing BFAs to ensure your interests are protected.
Mediation and Negotiation
We aim to resolve property disputes through mediation and negotiation where possible, avoiding the stress and cost of court proceedings. Our experienced lawyers can represent you in discussions to reach a mutual agreement.
Litigation Support
In cases where an agreement cannot be reached through mediation, Wise Family Lawyers are ready to represent you in family court. We will advocate for a fair outcome based on your contributions and future needs.
