Divorce Lawyer on the Gold Coast
Thinking about or in the midst of a divorce? It doesn't need to be an emotionally draining process. So if you are looking for a Divorce Lawyer on the Gold Coast to lay out the steps in front of you and what action you need to take, Chan Lawyers is here to support you.
No matter the reason for a Divorce, Australia operates a no-fault divorce system. This means that the court doesn't really take into account the reason, nor does it determine if either the Husband or Wife is at fault. The only basis for obtaining a divorce in Australia is that the two parties have been apart for a year and a day.
If you are looking for expert divorce lawyers on the Gold Coast we are situated in Surface Paradise and look forward to assisting you no matter what stage you are at in the process.

Step 3: Strategise
After we have done our research we can them formulate a clear strategy and a path to the best outcomes possible for you even in the most complex family law related matters.
Step 4: Provide Backup
