Australian Family Law Act

The Australian Family Law Act is legislation that governs family-related legal matters, including divorce, child custody, and property settlement. It aims to ensure fair and just outcomes for families by providing a framework for resolving disputes and protecting the rights of all parties involved. The Act emphasizes the best interests of children and encourages amicable arrangements, while also setting out court processes for unresolved issues. It balances individual rights with the need for children’s welfare and promotes fair division of assets following separation or divorce.
