k&J Chambers is a highly regarded Adelaide family law firm known for specialising in all aspects of family law and Wills & Estates. Our team of barristers, solicitors and arbitrators provide expert advice and representation to married and de facto couples in relation to all aspects of family law, including de facto matters, property settlements, spousal maintenance, child support, divorce, financial agreements and "pre-nuptial" agreements. In addition we are able to expertly take care of your Will and Estate planning/administration needs.
Your first appointment with one of our expert family lawyers is an opportunity for you to explain your situation and what you would like to achieve. The first appointment typically takes about an hour to an hour and a half and, in most cases, you will be given preliminary advice about your matter together with different options about how to proceed. We will also give you a fee estimate at or shortly after your first appointment.
We are International Legal Practitioners, with many years of experience in the provision of legal advice and company representation at our fingertips. Together with our selected cooperative partners, we develop interdisciplinary solutions for the complex challenges facing our clients.
It is common for people to seek advice prior to separating from their partner, usually so that they can make a fully informed decision about their situation and have some knowledge of what may lie ahead. Clients often find it helpful to know their rights, responsibilities, obligations and likely outcomes from the outset.
We will always endeavour to settle your matter in a timely and cost effective manner, preferably without resorting to litigation. If litigation does occur, then our firm has the experience and resources to conduct it to the highest possible standard.
If you and your former partner have reached an informal agreement about family law issues, then we can prepare the necessary documents to record the agreement in a legally binding manner. It is important to have your agreement recorded in a legally binding manner to protect from any claims in the future. Further, formal documentation is often required to document child support arrangements, to take advantage of stamp duty and capital gains tax exemptions and to transfer superannuation.
The lawyer that you will meet with will be experienced and practises only in family law, so you can be assured of sound and professional advice.
