Family law mediation is a process where a neutral third party helps families resolve disputes outside of court. This collaborative approach allows both parties to participate in the negotiation process, and aims to reach mutually beneficial agreements regarding the parental and financial aspect of separation. Mediation can often be quicker and less expensive than going to court.

Domestic contracts are legally binding agreements made between individuals regarding their rights and obligations within a domestic relationship. These contracts can cover various topics, including property division, support, and parenting arrangements. They can take the form of Marriage Contracts (often referred to as a "prenup"), Cohabitation Agreements or Separation Agreements.

Family litigation cases begin when one party makes an Application to the court for an order relating to the terms of their separation. The courts attempt to provide the parties with opportunities to negotiate a settlement outside of court. However, if the parties are unable to come to a final resolution on all of the issues, the court will step in and make a final decision.

Divorce is the legal process of dissolving a marriage, allowing both parties to separate their lives and responsibilities. People often chose to deal with the terms of the separation in the form of a Separation Agreement and only apply to the court for a simple divorce. Whether your divorce is simple, or more so about negotiating the terms of your separation, Hines Legal is here to assist.

Wills & Powers of Attorney

Wills are legal documents that outline how a person's assets and affairs should be handled after their death, ensuring their wishes are carried out. Powers of Attorney, on the other hand, grant someone the authority to make decisions on behalf of another person if that person becomes incapacitated. Make sure you have a plan for your affairs by contacting a professional at Hines Legal.

Therefore, we have lawyers who can assist you with every step of the process to make a difficult time less so.
