Frequently Asked Questions

Family law is the area of law that deals with family relationship issues, including relationship breakdowns and disputes. It is underpinned by the Family Law Act 1975, which sets out the rights, responsibilities and liabilities of spouses and children. Whether you're experiencing a de facto relationship or marriage breakdown, Owen Hodge is here for you. Our experienced divorce lawyers will handle and guide you with the documentation, and divorce application.

Family law matters can be stressful and emotional — especially following a relationship breakdown. Our family lawyers are here to help you navigate these difficult times so you can move on with life. While the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia both allow people to represent themselves, the process can be incredibly complex and cost you both significant time and money. That's why it's always best to seek legal advice so you can minimise the risk of ongoing litigation.

Whether you're dealing with a marriage separation or child custody issues, it's best to get a family law specialist involved early on. As mentioned, family law matters can be complicated, especially when it comes to property settlements, children and understanding your rights and obligations.
