Do you know the legal relevance of a de facto relationship? We do … and can help you.

If you are in a de facto relationship, it may be assumed that you are subject to the same rights and responsibilities applicable to married couples. Consider whether this is appropriate in your circumstances.

For example, if a de facto partner dies, then the surviving partner is usually entitled to a significant share of the deceased partner’s estate. This might mean that your children from a previous relationship are unintentionally precluded (to the extent you would like) from benefiting from your estate.

The recognition of a de facto relationship under the Family Law Act has been a major step in acknowledging the rights of less traditional (i.e. non-spousal) relationships. It is important however that de facto partners are aware of their legal status and can plan to prevent unintended consequences arising from their relationship.

Some de facto couples choose to make a financial agreement to set out how their property is divided if their relationship breaks down, thus ousting the jurisdiction of the Family Court. This is common for couples who are in a new relationship but have children from a former relationship. The financial agreement may also protect a partner’s children’s inheritance from potential family provision claims.

All relationships are different and plans need to take into account the respective needs of the partners and their financial circumstances, whilst understanding the impact that the law would otherwise have on a de facto relationship. It is wise to consider these matters whilst a relationship is sound rather than after it breaks down.

Our Lawyers can explain the legal effect of your relationship and help you and your partner plan ways to ensure that your property is divided or left as you intend. by @rtlegal

If you are involved in a legal dispute, using an alternative dispute resolution process is usually a viable option to resolve your case. Mediation is one such process that can provide a low-cost solution to a legal problem.

How does mediation work?

Mediation involves a neutral person (the mediator) meeting face to face with the parties to a dispute and assisting them to reach a resolution. The meeting is confidential, and the mediator does not provide legal advice nor does he or she determine the dispute.

Mediation is best used when the parties are willing to negotiate in good faith and make genuine attempts to resolve the dispute. Even if the mediation does not provide a definitive outcome, it can at least identify the issues in dispute and narrow the unresolved matters.

Mediation is ideal even for highly complex matters where reports by experts may also be used for the process.

If an agreement is reached the parties can formalise their negotiations be entering into terms of settlement.

We understand the impact that a legal dispute can have on your life, your business and your wellbeing and will always look to the most effective way to resolve your case in terms of cost and outcome.

Heidelberg Mediation and Dispute Resolution

If you are involved in a legal dispute, using an alternative dispute resolution process is usually a viable option to resolve your case. Mediation is one such process that can provide a low-cost solution to a legal problem. You may have also heard of other methods of alternative dispute resolution, such as conciliation and arbitration.

In fact, taking part in alternative methods of resolving a dispute prior to instigating Court proceedings, is compulsory in several areas of law. Mediation is often used for:

*** Civil and commercial disputes;
*** Building and construction disputes;
*** Debt recovery and contractual disputes;
*** Family provision claims; and
*** Family law matters.

We understand the impact that a legal dispute can have on your life, your business and your wellbeing and will always look to the most effective way to resolve your case in terms of cost and outcome.
