Property Settlements

At the end of a relationship, it is necessary to determine how to divide up your assets and financial resources. A property settlement is the term used to describe who gets what after the end of a marriage or de facto relationship. The Family Law Act 1975 covers matters relating to property settlements for married couples and de-facto couples.

“Property” covers such things as your home, investments properties, money in the bank, shares, cars, boats, business interests, household contents, and Superannuation.
