Get legal advice for family consent orders

Should you wish to formalise parenting matters, contact me for a no-obligation consultation. As an experienced family lawyer, I can advise you whether consent orders or a parenting plan are the best option to formalise parenting arrangements. In circumstances where Consent Orders need to be drafted, documents are required to be filed with the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia. The court will not give effect to the Consent Orders unless they are in the best interests of the child/children.

Mediation for family law consent orders

As an accredited member of the AMA, I am a strong advocate for mediation as a means to resolve family disputes. Mediation is a confidential, timely and cost-effective approach where both parties can achieve a mutual agreement and avoid going to court. Under this method, a mediator’s role is to facilitate discussions between each side and explore key areas of concern that represent a roadblock to agreement. A mediator is neutral and does not take sides.
