What can a financial settlement include?
Navigate the financial complexities of divorce with expert advice on dividing assets such as property, pensions, and ensuring fair child maintenance.
Property
This includes the family home, rental properties, or any other real estate owned by either or both parties. The court will consider the equity in these properties and how they should be divided.
Savings and Bank Accounts
Any money held in personal or joint accounts, including savings accounts.
Pensions
Pensions accumulated during the marriage, whether through an employer, private savings, or state pension. These can be divided in different ways, such as through pension sharing or offsetting.
Investments
This includes stocks, bonds, mutual funds, and other investment vehicles owned by either party, including business shares or ownership in companies.
Business Interests
If one or both parties own a business or have a stake in a business, the court will consider its value and how it should be divided or compensated for.
Personal Property
This includes personal possessions like vehicles, artwork, jewelry, collectibles, and other valuable items that may have been acquired during the marriage.
Debts
Any debts or liabilities accrued during the marriage, such as mortgages, loans, credit card debt, or business debts, will also be considered. The court will decide how these should be shared or divided.
Life Insurance Policies
The cash value of any life insurance policies owned by either party may also be considered an asset.
Inheritance and Gifts
Any inheritances or significant gifts received by one spouse during the marriage may be considered, depending on whether they were intended to be shared or kept separate.
Resolving Financial Matters After Divorce
When you divorce, settling financial matters is important. Our goal is to help you reach a fair agreement as quickly as possible to save you both time and money. These stages guide you toward a fair and clear resolution.
Stage 01:
Negotiations and Disclosure
In this first stage, both parties share financial information, including assets, income, and debts. Open communication is key. The aim here is to reach an agreement through negotiations, avoiding court if possible, using a Consent Order.
Stage 02:
First Directions Appointment (FDA)
The FDA is the first official court meeting. It reviews how things are progressing, addresses any problems, and sets out the next steps. The judge may also set deadlines for sharing financial details and provide guidance on moving forward.
Stage 03:
Financial Dispute Resolution Hearing (FDR)
The FDR hearing is a more detailed session where both sides present their financial situations. The judge may give an indication of how they would rule if the case went to a final hearing. This is an opportunity to settle with the judge’s help, often leading to an agreement.
Stage 04:
Final Hearing
If an agreement isn’t reached at the FDR, the case moves to the final hearing. At this stage, both parties present their evidence, and the judge makes the final decision on how to divide assets, debts, and any other financial matters. This decision is legally binding.

Frequently asked questions
Answers to commonly asked questions about our financial services:
A financial order is a legally binding agreement that outlines how financial matters, such as property, savings, and debts, will be divided following a divorce or separation. It's essential to prevent future claims and ensure a fair resolution.
Property is divided based on factors like the length of the marriage, contributions made by each spouse, and the needs of both parties. The goal is to achieve a fair distribution, considering all assets, including the family home.
Spousal maintenance is not automatic and depends on the circumstances. The court will consider factors like income, earning capacity, and financial needs. It can be awarded for a specific period or indefinitely.
Pensions are considered a marital asset and may be divided during a divorce. The court can order a pension-sharing arrangement, a pension offset, or a pension attachment order, depending on the situation.
If an agreement can't be reached, the case may go to court. A judge will decide on the financial settlement based on the evidence and applicable legal guidelines.
Inheritances and gifts received during the marriage may be considered in the division of assets, but they are treated differently from assets acquired jointly. However, the court will assess whether they should be shared, based on fairness.
Debts incurred during the marriage are typically considered joint liabilities and will be divided accordingly. The court will decide who is responsible for what, based on the circumstances.
Once a financial settlement is approved and a financial order is in place, it’s legally binding. However, in certain situations, it may be possible to apply for a variation if circumstances change significantly.
Child maintenance is the financial support paid by one parent to the other to help cover the costs of raising a child. The amount is usually based on income and the amount of time the child spends with each parent.
A consent order is a legal document that finalises your financial agreement following divorce or separation. It ensures the terms are enforceable and legally binding, providing protection for both parties.
