Divorce Lawyer

It is, unfortunately, a fact that over one-third of Australian marriages end in divorce and if you find your marriage heading in that direction, it is crucial that you contact Buenaventura Law and talk to us about your situation.

Divorces can be messy, involving assets, money, children and, often, ongoing legal arrangements in custody, visitation and child support payments.

We have vast experience in assisting our clients in navigating through all types of divorces, from amicable straightforward divorces to complicated asset allocation, child visitation and more.

Buenaventura Law will stick by you throughout the process and ensure you receive the best verdict possible with a long-term working arrangement.

Visitation and Custody

Unfortunately, marriages can end in divorce, and most of the time loved children are stuck in the middle and have a right to spend quality time with both parents.

As child custody lawyers, our sole aim is to ensure our clients can continue to have a loving relationship with all children involved. We will work with you and your ex-partner in good faith to help develop a fair and flexible parenting plan and agreement.

Buenaventura Law can assist in drafting and negotiating child support arrangements with the view that both parents should be involved in decisions regarding the long-term issues concerning a child, for example, where a child will go to school.

Domestic Violence

Unfortunately, domestic violence still exists in families and can have devastating effects on both parties, their children and also extended families.

Domestic violence in a marriage doesn’t always result in physical harm. It can also be verbal, psychological, social, sexual, and financial abuse, which all form part of the Australian domestic violence classifications.

Examples of non-physical domestic violence are

• Stalking
• Repeated derogatory comments
• Depriving someone of freedom of movement or speech
• Preventing someone from spending time with their friends and family
• Holding someone an economic hostage, not supporting them financially to allow them to meet their reasonable living expenses
• Threats of violence
• Damaging or destroying property or animals.

If you are a victim of domestic violence, then you must seek legal advice to ensure you are safe from further harm or damage.
