The end of a relationship is a stressful time, for so many reasons. On an emotional level you may be experiencing a range of feelings - betrayal, anger, sadness, fear, hurt, uncertainty, disappointment, disbelief, or regret. On a practical level you may not know what steps you should be taking or what you should be doing or saying to your partner or children.
Just because divorce is more common now doesn't mean it is any easier to deal with or simpler to know what to do. Every family law situation is different, so although you may have friends, family or colleagues who have been through a separation, chances are that the process and outcome in your matter will be quite different, and in fact it can be detrimental to your case to act on advice from anyone apart from a specialist in family law.

Services
Seeing a lawyer doesn't have to be a daunting process and it doesn't have to mean spending tens of thousands of dollars in a fight with your partner. For the first appointment you do not need to prepare or bring anything with you unless you want to. You are welcome to bring a friend or family member with you to support you.
Anyone who says separation is easy has not experienced it. Separation is absolutely the toughest thing I have been through and family law is hugely emotional. The key to a successful and fair outcome is to have good support and excellent advice. The Burrell team were proactive and there at every point I needed them.

In a troublesome situation, dealing with an ex-wife who likely didn't take solicitors advice and instructed based on controlling beliefs and opinions, Burrell Family Law provided me with genuine and practical legal guidance through a stressful two year period, reaching an outcome in the best interests of the children. Anyone entering into this emotional and stressful scenario must trust in over 20 years of expertise. It's not about you or your ex-partner, it's about Children.
