Relationship Property

Our relationship property team understands the dynamics of relationship and family issues and disputes.

Expertise in the complex and dynamic field of relationship property law requires understanding and knowledge of trusts, companies and partnerships. It can also involve restructuring and taxation issues.

• Care of Children/Guardianship – all issues relating to day-to day care (custody) including access and contact arrangements, guardianship matters, relocation disputes, adoption, and child support.
