Our team of divorce lawyers in Perth have a bucket-load of knowledge in family law. Our aim is to help you understand the full legal impact that a divorce will have on you and your family – and guide you through it.
A marriage annulment is a legal proceeding which effectively “cancels” the marriage between two parties due to it being considered void under certain conditions stated by the Family Law Act. Click here to learn how a Hickman Family annulment lawyer can help you with a marriage annulment in Perth.
Hickman Family Lawyers’ child custody and child support lawyers will ensure you’re fairly represented when it comes to resolving disputes over matters regarding your children. We’ll help you navigate the relevant laws to achieve the best outcome for you and your family.
There are three types of restraining orders issued in Perth – a Family Violence Restraining Order, a Violence Restraining Order (VRO) and a Misconduct Restraining Order. At Hickman Family Lawyers our VRO lawyers in Perth are well-versed in representing our clients with all types of restraining orders.
Spousal maintenance is the financial support given to a former partner if they are unable to adequately support themselves (and often their children). A spousal maintenance lawyer can take you through this process.
Whether you and your partner are struggling to reach an agreement over finances, access to your children or who gets the dog, our team at Hickman Family Lawyers has the expertise to help reach a settlement through family mediation.
Property settlements
When it comes to divorce and property, many of our clients have lots of questions about how the process of dividing property and other assets works. Our property settlement lawyers in Perth know all there is to know when it comes to divorce and property.
Consent Orders
If you’ve already agreed with your former partner about parenting arrangements or how you’re going to divide your property, you can bypass a big chunk of the legal process and apply straight to the Family Court of Western Australia for consent orders in terms of your agreement. Contact us today to find out more.
