BERRYMAN PARTNERS LAWYERS

We are dedicated to providing modern and tailored solutions to your family law property settlement.

An initial consultation with one of our family lawyers usually involves taking basic details about yourself, your ex-partner, any children you have, and superficial details about your assets and liabilities. An initial family law consultation with Berryman Partners Lawyers goes far beyond the basics.

Prior to an initial consultation we send you a questionnaire that allows us to gather some initial information about you and your circumstances to help us understand your situation. This questionnaire can be easily completed on your smartphone, tablet or computer without the need to print or scan documents.

We take the time to review your questionnaire before our initial consultation, so we have a general understanding of your situation before we meet. Gathering your basic information before the initial consultation allows us to discuss the finer details of your matter from the very beginning.

During your initial consultation, our virtual balance sheet (summary of assets, liabilities and superannuation) is populated on the spot from the information you provided in your questionnaire so that you can visually see what your property division might look like in your initial consultation, whether that’s based on a specific percentage outcome or a specific cash adjustment.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is considered as grounds for divorce in New Castle?

Grounds for divorce in New Castle include adultery, cruelty, desertion, imprisonment, and separation for a certain period of time.

Additionally, a no-fault divorce option is available where the parties have been living separately for at least one year and there is no reasonable prospect of reconciliation.

How is child custody determined in Newcastle?

Child custody in New Castle is determined based on the best interests of the child. Factors that are considered include the child’s relationship with each parent, each parent’s ability to provide for the child, and the child’s own preferences (if old enough to express them). Joint custody arrangements are also possible.

What is the process for obtaining a restraining order in New Castle?

To obtain a restraining order in New Castle, an individual must file a complaint with the court. The court will then hold a hearing to determine whether a restraining order is necessary.

The individual seeking the restraining order must present evidence of past abuse or a credible threat of future abuse. Restraining orders can prohibit the abuser from contacting the victim, entering the victim’s residence, or engaging in other specific behaviours.

How is property divided in a divorce in New Castle?

In New Castle, property is divided equitably during a divorce. This means that the court will try to divide the property in a fair and just manner, taking into account factors such as the length of the marriage, the earning potential of each spouse, and the needs of any children involved.

Marital property, which includes any property acquired during the marriage, is generally subject to division. Separate property, which includes property owned by one spouse prior to the marriage, is typically not subject to division.
