  • Mediation: Facilitating calm, cooperative dialogue to avoid court where possible.
  • Court Representation: Advocating for your case if formal proceedings are necessary.

Child support in Australia is governed by the Child Support (Assessment) Act and administered by Services Australia. The system uses a formula that considers:

  • The number and age of the children
  • Each parent’s income
  • Living arrangements and care percentages

The receiving parent can either:

  • Opt in to have Services Australia manage payments, or
  • Opt out and manage payments privately.

In cases of unpaid support, the agency can recover debts via tax refunds or legal action. Disagreements can be reviewed through reassessments, objections, or appeals to the Administrative Appeals Tribunal.

At CG Legal, we help parents understand their rights, negotiate fair terms, and prepare Binding Child Support Agreements covering school fees, medical expenses, insurance, and more.

Most property settlements begin with negotiation — either directly, with legal support, or through mediation. If an agreement is reached, it can be formalised quickly via:

  • Consent Orders, or
  • Binding Financial Agreements

If no agreement is possible, court proceedings may be required. During litigation:

  • Financial documents are exchanged
  • Valuations are arranged
  • Mediation is typically mandatory

If mediation fails, the court will hold a hearing and decide on a fair division of assets and liabilities.

While it’s not legally required to have a lawyer for property settlements (except for Binding Financial Agreements), legal guidance is strongly recommended.

  • For Consent Orders: You can proceed without a lawyer, but legal advice ensures all assets are properly disclosed and the agreement is enforceable.
  • For Binding Financial Agreements: Both parties must have independent legal representation, with written confirmation of legal advice.

At CG Legal, we ensure your settlement is legally sound, tax-effective, and tailored to your needs — helping you avoid costly mistakes or future disputes.
