Family Law
Binding Financial Agreements
A financial agreement is a formal document that outlines the finances, property and maintenance of parties in a marital relationship. De facto couples can also enter into a similar agreement, called a “cohabitation agreement”. Financial agreements can be made before, during or after marriage.
A financial agreement is an essential step to controlling and maintaining your finances, property and assets. Even if you both agree to the terms of the agreement, independent legal advice is paramount before signing any documentation.
At McIntosh, McPhillamy & Co, our team of family law specialists will:
- evaluate in detail your agreement and advise on the best way to protect your financial interests;
- draft and formalise your agreement; and
- negotiate on your behalf, assist in resolving any disputes and appear in court where appropriate.
