Terms of Service

This is a limited-scope engagement. We prepare, check and file your divorce application in the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia and handle service and the hearing as described on our Pricing page. Property settlement, parenting orders and other family law work are not included unless we separately agree in writing.

Professional fees are fixed as published (joint $1,200, sole $1,500, incl. GST) plus the Court's filing fee. Any work outside the fixed fee is quoted in writing and agreed before any work starts. Money paid in advance is held in our trust account in accordance with the Legal Profession Uniform Law until it may be applied.

You agree to provide accurate, complete information and documents. Eligibility and dates are confirmed by a lawyer before anything is filed. Every applicant completes an identity check and a short verification video call before filing.

If the Court rejects an application because of our error, we correct and re-file it at no additional professional fee to you.

Our turnaround times are our usual practice, not a promise. Court listing times are set by the Court, with hearings listed in order of filing.

Only the Court can grant a divorce. We do not guarantee any particular outcome.

You may end the engagement at any time. Unearned fees held in trust are returned in accordance with the costs agreement.

These terms are governed by the law of Victoria. If you have a concern, see our complaints process. Our handling of personal information is described in our privacy policy.
