1. Can I remarry immediately after applying for divorce?

You cannot remarry immediately after filing an application for divorce. Your new marital status will only be considered after one month of you receiving your divorce certificate. With mutual consent from both the parties, it takes nearly 2 to 3 months for the divorce to proceed. The divorce is valid after one month and one day, once the order is passed. According to the laws of Queensland, one should not remarry during the procedure of filing divorce as it would come under bigamy.

Yes, you can. You can form a mutual agreement regarding the share of financial expenses contributed by each parent for the child. Parents can mutually decide the number of days their child will live with them or their spouse. Otherwise, one can also agree on the decision passed by the court regarding the custody of the child.

3. Where can I find the best family lawyers in Brisbane?

In case you have been searching for the best family Lawyers in Brisbane, then you are just at the right place. With Fit Lawyers, you not only get an affordable family lawyer at your service, but you are also guided in the right direction. Our team of proficient lawyers are always ready to help you in making your legal process easy and smooth.

4. Is it necessary for me to go to court for the settlement of family matters?

In case of mutual consent on matters, there might not be a need to go to court. For instance, if you have agreed on the property and financial distribution as planned and implemented by all the family members, you can get it settled outside the court under legal guidance of our lawyers. Even in divorce, if you are applying with mutual consent, your attendance in court may not be required. But, if you are applying for divorce as a sole applicant, you have to go to court.

5. Do I have to be an Australian citizen to settle family matters in Brisbane?

Being an Australian citizen is an essential requirement in most of the cases of family settlements.

Testimonials

★★★★★ 5/5

As a growing business, we knew it was time to seek a legal partner to assist with contracts. Ji has been fantastic to work with, producing thorough results in a timely manner. He has taken templates we'd previously sourced along with notes on our requirements and delivered what can only be described as legal wizardry. I can now focus on my business with peace of mind knowing I have solid contracts to fall back on should I ever need to. Thank you Fit Lawyers.
