Property settlement refers to the legal process of dividing assets and liabilities between partners following the breakdown of a marriage or de facto relationship.

Under the Family Law Act 1975 Section 79 on  Alteration of Property Interests  and find out how we can assist. , the court has the authority to alter the property interests of the parties to a marriage or a bankrupt party involved in the marriage, ensuring that any property division is just and equitable.

The court considers several factors, including the financial support paid or contributed by each party, the impact of any decision on the parties’ future financial situation, and contributions made to the welfare of the family. This allows for tailored solutions that reflect the unique circumstances of each case, ensuring fairness in the distribution of asset pool and liabilities.

Asset and Liability Assessment
The first step involves identifying and valuing all assets and liabilities owned by both parties, either jointly or individually. This includes real estate, investments, businesses, superannuation, and personal property.

Evaluation of Contributions
Contributions made by each partner are assessed. These include financial contributions towards the acquisition or improvement of assets and non-financial contributions such as domestic duties and caregiving. Contributions made by third parties for the benefit of either partner, like parental gifts, are also considered.

Consideration of Future Needs
The court also considers factors such as the age and health of each party, income and earning capacity, who has the care of any children of the relationship, and the duration of the marriage or relationship, to determine if one party should receive more than the other.

Just and Equitable Distribution
Ultimately, the distribution must be just and equitable. This doesn't always mean equal – it’s about what is fair after considering the entire circumstances of both parties.
