Family Law

When it comes to family law, we’re different

Our team is pragmatic, experienced, detail-orientated, and client-focused. But most of all, we’re different because we care. Let our specialised family law team provide you with the knowledge, skills and resources to navigate your family law matter regardless of how simple or complex it may be.

Prior to the breakdown of a relationship

Ryan & Ryan Lawyers can assist you to construct financial agreements (known colloquially as ‘prenups’) that define yours and your partner’s respective rights and entitlements in the event of separation. We also regularly provide advice to those who are contemplating separation and would like to understand the path that lies ahead.

Following the breakdown of a relationship, we can assist you to reach agreement with your former partner and to draw up your agreement in the appropriate written form.

Where agreement has not yet been reached, we are able to negotiate with your former partner or their solicitor to reach a settlement with a minimum of trouble or expense. Where negotiations fail, we are able to assist you to make, or respond to, an application in Court.

Compassionate Family Law services, locally and beyond

Any family law matter can be stressful and daunting for all participants. With a view to minimising that experience, we always show empathy and respect to all involved and communicate openly, honestly and firmly with our client’s best interests at heart. Based in Toukley on the Central Coast of NSW, we are proud to take care of our local community.

We also service clients from all over the state, interstate and overseas. We regularly meet with existing and prospective clients in person away from the office, by telephone or over Zoom or Teams where travel to or from our office is impractical.
