Your trusted team for child custody matters

Following the breakdown of a marriage or de facto relationship, the issue of child custody often comes into play and at Elizabeth Wiese Associates, our family law team can assist with this process. For almost 30 years, we’ve been representing clients in the Family Courts, and we understand how important it is for you to have a positive outcome in such cases.

The Family Law Act states that the rights and well-being of a child resulting from a marriage or a relationship is paramount, so it’s important not to delay proceedings. It’s best to deal with child custody issues as soon as possible, to ensure minimal distress and uncertainty for all involved.

At Elizabeth Wiese Associates, we aim to make the process as stress-free as we can for our clients, and will endeavour to resolve matters quickly for your convenience.

Resolving child custody matters

By law, each parent is presumed to have parental responsibility for a child, though it’s up to you or the court to decide the details of care, contact and child support. As part of our services, we can assist you and your former partner in creating and agreeing parenting plans, with details drawn up regarding where your child or children will live permanently. The plan will also cover all other related issues and we’ll make sure that you understand everything fully before it’s agreed.
