The breakdown of a relationship is often one of life’s most challenging experiences. Alongside the emotional impact can come uncertainty about your future, your finances, and your legal rights. At Craig McKay Legal, we provide practical, compassionate, and strategic legal advice to help you navigate this difficult time with confidence. While every family situation is unique, our goal is to provide clarity, reduce stress, and help you achieve the best possible outcome so you can move forward with certainty. Whether you are exploring your options, have recently separated, or need assistance finalising arrangements, we are here to guide and support you every step of the way. Contact us today for a complimentary, no-obligation telephone consultation.

When a marriage ends, one of the most important issues to resolve is the division of assets, liabilities, and financial resources accumulated during the relationship. At Craig McKay Legal, we work to achieve fair and equitable property settlements through negotiation wherever possible, helping clients avoid unnecessary legal costs and lengthy court proceedings. In many cases, agreements can be formalised through Consent Orders, providing certainty and finality for both parties. If you would like to understand your likely entitlements or discuss your options following separation, contact us for a confidential consultation.
Couples in de facto relationships may have many of the same legal rights and obligations as married couples when a relationship comes to an end. If you have been in a de facto relationship, you may be entitled to seek a property settlement and financial adjustment. We can help you understand your rights, assess your circumstances, and negotiate an outcome that reflects your contributions and future needs. Our focus is always on achieving practical and cost-effective resolutions that allow you to move forward with confidence.

A Binding Financial Agreement (BFA), commonly referred to as a “prenuptial agreement,” allows couples to determine how assets and financial resources will be divided if their relationship ends.

These agreements can be entered into before, during, or after a relationship and can provide valuable certainty and asset protection. They are particularly beneficial where one party brings significantly greater assets into a relationship, owns a business, expects an inheritance, or wishes to protect family wealth.

Craig McKay Legal can advise you on whether a Binding Financial Agreement is suitable for your circumstances and ensure the agreement complies with all legal requirements.

In Australia, married couples may apply for divorce after being separated for at least 12 months. While the legal process itself is often straightforward, obtaining a divorce is an important step in formally ending a marriage and may have implications for future property and financial matters. Craig McKay Legal can assist with preparing and lodging your divorce application, ensuring the process is handled efficiently and with minimal stress. If you are considering divorce or have questions about your legal rights following separation, contact us today to discuss how we can help.
