Parenting matters, following separation, typically involves disputes about with whom children live and under what circumstances and conditions. Other issues include parental responsibility and decision-making, potential relocation interstate, communication between the parties, electronic communication between parents and their children, the division of holidays, dealing with emergencies, and numerous other issues.
We recommend that you make a valid will so you decide who will inherit your assets and administer your estate. If you do not leave a valid will, others will decide who will receive your assets and administer your estate. We often see improperly executed and invalid 'do it yourself' will kits that cause significant legal issues with the subsequent administration of the estate.

I was most impressed with Julian Barry at Darwin Family Law. He was a pleasure to deal with on a tricky property matter we had recently. He always acted professionally and responded promptly when required. It is great to deal with a colleague up in Darwin when I am based in Sydney. Best wishes to you Julian and your staff.

Without a doubt the most professional straight forward law firm I've dealt with. My property settlement was sorted out quickly & efficiently without the run around of my previous lawyer. Would highly recommend Julian Barry as the man to sort it out. I wish I had engaged his expertise from the beginning. Worth his weight in gold. Down to earth & straight forward. Actually works for your best interest.👍
