Edwards Family Lawyers

Edwards Moloney Family Law is a prominent law firm located in North Sydney, bringing over three decades of experience to complex family law matters. Our firm offers comprehensive legal services encompassing property settlements, divorce proceedings, child custody arrangements, and mediation. We are committed to providing clients with well-informed advice and practical solutions following the dissolution of marriages or de facto relationships. Our senior legal team includes several members who have attained recognition through the Law Society of New South Wales’ Specialist Accreditation Scheme in family law. This distinction reflects their advanced knowledge and extensive experience in divorce, property settlements, custody disputes, and mediation services. With offices in Sydney’s CBD and North Sydney, our team is positioned to support clients across a wide range of family law issues. Edwards Moloney Family Lawyers understand that selecting the appropriate legal representation starts with identifying the specific nature of your case. Whether your matter involves divorce, child custody, or intricate property settlements, we recommend seeking referrals and conducting thorough research. Our approach emphasises transparent communication, strategic advice, and client comfort, essential qualities during emotionally sensitive proceedings. Our services address all facets of family law. We assist clients in navigating divorce under the criteria of irretrievable breakdown, including cases where separation occurs under the same roof. We guide clients through financial matters associated with relationship breakdowns, such as the division of assets and liabilities, spousal maintenance, superannuation splitting, and child support variations. Our team actively promotes negotiation and dispute resolution opportunities before, during, and after court proceedings, recognising that settlements can occur at any stage. In matters concerning children, we prioritise arrangements that reflect the best interests of the child, encouraging participation in counselling and mediation to facilitate constructive agreements. Our mediation services, led by Principal Frances Edwards—a National Accredited Mediator and member of leading dispute resolution bodies—are crafted to support effective communication and dispute resolution in both parenting and property disputes. Recognising the legal rights of de facto partners, including same-sex couples, we provide expert advice tailored to the specific legislative framework governing these relationships since 1 March 2009. Our firm is dedicated to guiding clients through the complexities of family law with clarity, expertise, and empathy.
