About the eBook

  • Big Money, Big Problems? The Family Court and the Top End of Town
    • Rising property values, globalisation of commerce, dual family income, inheritance and investment growth have seen the wealth of Australians rise considerably over the last few decades, and none more so than those at the top of the tree. This session will explore how the family courts are viewing property adjustment in very wealthy family separations.
  • Counting the Cost of Family Violence on Property Settlements
    • The impact of family violence has been increasingly recognised by the courts in property settlement matters. This session examines the financial consequences of family violence.
  • Same But Different? The Impact of Relationship Status on Judicial Decision Making
    • Under the Family Law Act, de facto couples and married couples have virtually the same rights when it comes to the application of laws governing property arrangements. However, do the cases tell a different tale? This session will examine trends in decision-making through a number of cases and provide guidance for case preparation with your client’s specific circumstances in mind.
  • The Enforcement of Family Law Financial Agreements and Section 90K(1)(d)
    • Section 90K of the Family Law Act sets out a number of grounds upon which a financial agreement may be set aside. Chief amongst these is a “material change in circumstances” arising from some aspect of the care, welfare and development of a child of the marriage. Sounds simple in theory, but section 90K can be difficult to apply in practice.
  • The Impact of Insolvency on the Family Law Asset Pool
    • After a challenging few years, it is inevitable that some family law clients may be staring down the barrel of bankruptcy or insolvency. This session examines insolvency and its impact on property settlements, with a focus on the new insolvency reforms.
  • Mind the Tax on the Way Out: Tax and Family Law
    • The increasing financial complexities of business and holding assets directly impacts family law settlements as parties seek to unravel their arrangements. This session will provide a clear guide to family lawyers on tax implications of property settlements.
