Specialisations

Family Law

Martens Legal offers comprehensive assistance in family law matters, focusing on helping clients navigate the complexities of property settlements, parenting arrangements, and child support. They guide separated couples through dividing assets such as real estate, superannuation, and debts, while ensuring clients understand their entitlements and options. Their approach to parenting matters emphasises early, informed decision-making to support children’s wellbeing, offering negotiation avenues like Family Dispute Resolution and court applications if necessary. Additionally, they provide advice on child support matters including private agreements and enforcement issues. The firm is also experienced in handling divorce applications, clarifying that divorce legally ends a marriage but does not address related financial or parenting matters, which are managed separately. Martens Legal supports clients in de facto relationship separations, recognising their rights regarding property and financial maintenance. They assist with spousal maintenance claims post-separation, considering factors like financial capacity and care responsibilities. Furthermore, they prepare Financial Agreements to help couples protect assets and set terms for property division and maintenance, ensuring compliance with legal requirements to make these binding.

Mediation

Martens Legal offers experienced guidance in the mediation process for family law disputes, particularly for clients navigating negotiations with former partners. The firm supports clients through private mediations, providing clarity on what to expect, facilitating productive communication, and ensuring clients understand the benefits of having legal advice during mediation. Their approach emphasises the importance of a tailored process that helps parties move from entrenched positions toward mutually acceptable agreements. The team understands the nuances of mediation settings and protocols, such as the shuttle format, involvement of support persons, and selection of suitable venues. Should mediation not result in an agreement, Martens Legal is prepared to assist clients with alternative legal pathways, ensuring comprehensive support throughout the resolution of family law matters.
