Your financial position can change significantly when a relationship ends. Understanding how your assets, business interests and superannuation are treated puts you in a stronger position to make good decisions, before, during and after separation.

As a Sunshine Coast family law firm, we advise on how property held personally, through companies or trusts, and in superannuation may be treated in a family law matter. Superannuation is treated as property, and can be split between parties by agreement or Court order. We explain how this works and what to expect.

Our advice is practical and forward-looking, and always within the law. Steps taken to defeat a former partner’s claim can be set aside, and you have a duty of full financial disclosure. We can combine this advice with a property settlement or a Binding Financial Agreement.
