Binding Financial Agreements

Our Lawyers can provide you with critical advice about how to protect your assets in the event of separation.

If you are considering entering into a committed relationship (de facto or marriage), you may wish to give certainty to protecting your assets and seek advice about entering into a Prenuptial/ pre relationship Binding Financial Agreement.

We can assist you with the preparation of the Binding Financial Agreements prior to marriage (prenuptial agreements) or prior to entering into a de facto relationship and can give you advice about a proposed Agreement if you have been presented with one.

"Advice early, and at the time of separation could make all the difference."

We also provide advice and assistance in preparing and finalising Binding Financial Agreements following separation. Advice early, and at the time of separation could make all the difference and may avoid the commencement of costly Court proceedings and ensure your rights are protected.

It is a requirement under the Family Law Act for written legal advice to be obtained prior to parties entering into a Binding Financial Agreement. Please contact one of our Family Lawyers for information and advice on entering into a Binding Financial Agreement and whether it is suitable for you and your particular circumstances.
