In circumstances where both parties agree on how matrimonial assets are to be divided at the time of separation, Consent Orders can be filed with the Family Court of Australia to formalise a financial agreement. Whilst neither party is required to be legally represented to file Consent Orders with the Family Court, it is recommended that you obtain legal advice from property settlement lawyers int eh Sydney area. This will ensure that you receive all that you are entitled to in your circumstances.
In cases where neither party can agree on how matrimonial assets are to be divided at the time of separation, either party has the right to be able to file proceedings with the family courts. Parties to a marriage have a period of one year post divorce in which they can bring proceedings before the courts for an alteration of financial interests. In the case of a de facto relationship, a period of two years exists.
