01 · Our Purpose

Why Aussie Divorce exists.

Relationships today are more complex than ever. Many couples live in de facto partnerships, blended families are the norm, and separations often involve difficult financial and parenting challenges.

In Australia, the law treats married and de facto couples alike when it comes to separation, property division, and parenting. Once the decision to separate is made, a series of legal and practical steps follow — ready or not.

Since 2005, Aussie Divorce has been dedicated to giving people the tools they need during a relationship breakdown. We explain the process in plain, non-legal English, so you can understand your options and prepare for what comes next.

03 · What's Ahead

The emotional and legal challenge.

Separation is highly stressful. To emerge in the best shape possible, four things matter most.

  1. Hire the right lawyer for your case.
  2. Gather and organise the critical information your lawyer needs to advise you correctly.
  3. Stay focused on your goals — both immediate and long-term.
  4. Take control of your legal journey, rather than letting the process control you.
  5. I know how overwhelming this can feel because I've been there myself.”

In 2003, I was working as a real estate agent, focused on securing my family's future. But behind the scenes, my marriage was collapsing.

I entered the family law system unprepared, and it felt like stepping into a world scripted from Hollywood — full of bully lawyers, a dysfunctional system, and raw greed.

I often asked myself three questions:

  • — Could I have managed the process better?
  • — Could I have been better prepared?
  • — Should I have had a better lawyer?

The answer was yes — to all three. I had to learn on the run, attending court, spending nights in law libraries, piecing together knowledge I desperately needed. I knew there had to be a better way for others.
