What is Property Settlement?

Property settlement is the legal process of dividing assets, liabilities, and property between separated partners. This process considers contributions before and during the relationship, along with future financial and non-financial needs of both parties. Each party’s contributions, the length of the relationship, and future requirements are all carefully evaluated by the court.

At Conditsis Lawyers our experienced Family Law Solicitors can help you answer all of these questions and much more to ensure you achieve the fairest property settlement possible. An application to the court in relation to property settlement can be made any time after separation, thus enabling you to organise your life and make plans for your future.

How is Property Divided?

In property settlement matters, the Family Court considers several factors:

Determining the Property Pool: Before parties engage in settlement discussions, it is necessary to identify and or value all of the assets, liabilities, financial resources, and superannuation entitlements of the parties.
Initial Contributions: The property each party brought into the relationship, including assets like savings, property, or businesses.
Contributions During the Relationship: Financial and non-financial contributions, including income, homemaking, and childcare responsibilities.
Future Needs: This includes the age, health, and financial position of each party, as well as care responsibilities for children.
Just and Equitable: When considering all the above factors, whether the proposed division of property is just and equitable.

Financial Agreements

In some cases, couples may choose to enter into Financial Agreements to address property division and spousal maintenance without involving the court. These agreements can be made before, during, or after a relationship ends and allow parties to make decisions about their financial matters privately. At Conditsis Lawyers, we can guide you through the process of drafting legally binding financial agreements to protect your assets and ensure your financial interests are safeguarded.
