At the end of a relationship, it is necessary for you and your ex-partner to divide up your assets and financial resources. Time limits do apply so it is important to start this process as soon as possible
Since March 2009, property settlements for de facto and married couples are very similar, as de facto relationships are now covered by Commonwealth Law. You may be able to negotiate a property settlement with your former partner, but if an agreement cannot be reached, you may need to go to court.
A property settlement lawyer can help you negotiate a fair property settlement with your former partner. They can also represent you in court if an agreement cannot be reached.
Contact property settlement lawyers in Brisbane today to get started and today for further information.
If you have reached an financial agreement after the divorce as to how your assets are to be divided, it is vital that you formally document the agreement in the form of Consent Orders or as a Binding Financial Agreement (BFA). This is to prevent people from changing their mind or failing to follow through with what was originally agreed. To find out more about the difference between a Binding Financial Agreement and a Consent Order, you can read about it here. Having your property settlement formally documented also has the benefit of no Stamp Duty being incurred in any transfer of property, which could save you thousands of dollars.
Our property settlement solicitors can advise you as to the appropriate form that your agreement should take and draft the agreement for you at a competitive price.
We provide Fixed Fees for Consent Orders and some less complex BFAs. Call us now to find out about our costs.

In some circumstances, it is also possible to place a caveat on a property title. A caveat is a warning to other people that you have an interest in the property and can help you protect that interest. Our property settlement solicitors can advise you if this is a step that you can take.
