Our family lawyers will provide you with confidential advice on:
What are my options to resolve a family dispute?
The law requires separated parties to make a genuine effort to resolve their dispute before filing proceedings in Court. A Scammell & Co. family lawyer can assist you to communicate and negotiate a settlement and attend a lawyer-assisted mediation with you.
If parties can’t come to an agreement, the dispute may need to be resolved through litigation, which may take months (if not longer) to resolve with the parties obliged to continue to negotiate.
If the parties cannot reach agreement, the matter may be referred to trial where a judge will make a decision based on the evidence and arguments presented.
