Save Money on Specialists with the Journey Family Lawyers unique "team" approach to cases. At Journey Family Lawyers we work together on each case, ensuring you receive specialist care, while still having the benefit of a close working relationship with the lawyer primarily handling your case.

To apply for divorce within Australia you need to have been separated for at least one year and have no chance of reuniting with your former partner. For us to help you, one of the parties needs to be an Australian Citizen, and regard Australia as their home (or have lived in Australia for 12 months prior to the divorce).
At Journey Family Lawyers, we're committed to helping you achieve the outcome you need to get on with life. We know how important your children are to you, and we will fight hard to protect your rights to shared time with them while always keeping their best interests in mind. Recent updates to the Family Law Act have put the emphasis back on what's best for children, so we no longer use words like 'custody', 'access' or 'guardianship'.
Once you know your relationship has ended, it's important to take steps so you can move towards your future. At this time, you may not want to think logically, or plan ahead, but how you act now and the things you do today could have an effect on your future. By being calm and considered, you can give yourself a better chance of an easier (and less expensive) separation process.

I am very glad that I chose Damien Greer lawyers to represent me during the most difficult period of my life. I am immensely grateful to Scott Richardson for dealing with my case with dignity and outstanding professionalism. Scott was always one step ahead, open and honest, supportive, and as a highly experienced professional he was always prepared for any possible scenarios during the entire process. I’m happy with the outcome and would highly recommend Damian Greer lawyers. I’d also like to say a huge thank you to the amazing staff Arlena, Liann, Candice, and Simone.

Damien Greer and his team always made me feel totally safe and supported; fully informed and understood during what is most definitely a stressful, traumatic process. They worked tirelessly for me and for my children. They have an incredible knowledge of the law and they were at all times professional and caring. Fully focussed on my needs and a positive outcome. I trusted them totally and I am now looking forward to the next chapter of my life. I will always be eternally grateful to Damien and his team but to Wendy and Carolyn in particular.

A year ago, they recommended an overseas lawyer due to the fact that my assets were overseas plus the ex was a U.S. military. The lawyer they recommended was 3.5 stars, still I went with it hoping that Damien Greer lawyers recommendation was trustworthy despite the poor reviews on Google. As a result of this recommendation, I am short of $10k from the overseas lawyer: Offit/Kurman (+$595 Damien Greer lawyer fees) and still nothing came of it. I no longer use this same lawyer from overseas and currently in a process of finding another lawyer, hopefully one from Australia whose knowledgeable of overseas

Scott Richardson at Damien Greer Lawyers helped me get through one of the most difficult experiences of my life with my dignity and self-respect intact. I would recommend him to anyone going through a difficult family law situation. Scott worked with me and my family on more than one occasion to make sure we were safe and protected financially and emotionally in the long term. Scott is an experiences professional but more importantly, he is a decent human being. I am eternally grateful to have had him on my side through this ordeal.
