    Consent Orders in the Gold Coast  – Your Questions Answered

    Consent Orders – What are they?

    Consent Orders are a way for parties to formalize an agreement they’ve reached dividing their assets and liabilities or formalizing the arrangements for the future care of their children Without having to go to court. It is done by making an application to the Family Court Which sets out the specifics of the agreement that you’ve reached. Once the court makes Orders in accordance with your agreement it becomes legally binding in the same way as if the court had made Orders pursuant to a contested hearing. Property settlement Orders and the financial relationship between you and Orders a formalizing your parenting arrangements give you both peace of mind for the future.

    What financial matters can and can’t a Consent Order deal with?

    Financial Consent Orders on the Gold Coast include the transfer of assets between the parties on the sale of assets and the division of the net proceeds of sale. Any assets can be included such as real estate, bank accounts, trusts, companies, cars and superannuation.

    Financial Consent Orders cannot however deal with child support matters. The child support agency typically looks after the payment of child support and you can enter into your own private child support agreement if you want to However these are not matters that are covered by Consent Orders.

    Consent Orders – Why do you need them?

    In property settlements Consent Order to finalize the financial relationship between you so that neither party can come back at a future date and make a claim to the other parties assets in the future. You can also obtain a stamp duty exemption in relation to the transfer of real estate between parties who were in a relationship.

    For parenting matters locking in an agreement means that neither party can change their mind about the children’s care arrangements if their circumstances change. The Consent Orders are legally binding and can only be changed by agreement between the parties or a further court application.

    Spousal maintenance and Consent Orders

    Spousal maintenance is the payment by one party to their ex partner Of a sum of money with that by way of lump sum or regular instalment On account of one party being in a position to assist the other and the second party being unable to support themselves adequately. Spousal maintenance Orders can form part of your Consent Orders on the Gold Coast And a legally binding once made.

    Will my consent orders in the Gold Coast allow me stamp duty exemption?

    Yes. If you are transferring any real estate between yourself and your spouse in relation to your family law agreement, it will be exempt from stamp duty. We will ensure that your orders are compliant regardless of what state your property is located.

    Do I need to obtain legal advice for Consent Orders?

    It is not mandatory for parties to Consent Orders to have obtained their own independent legal advice although it is generally a good idea as it gives both parties peace of mind that they are entering into Is an informed decision. Some parties obtain their own independent legal advice and then come together to reach their own agreement And then have it drafted without any further legal advice being obtained.

    Are Consent Orders enforceable in the Family Court?

    Once the family court makes Consent Orders in accordance with your agreement they have the same force and effect as if a court had made the Consent Orders pursuant to a contested hearing. This means that if the Consent Orders are breached by one party then the non-defaulting party can take a matter back to court and ask the family court to enforce the Consent Orders Or for some other appropriate remedy. Typically however once court Orders are in place most people comply with them especially if they have been made following an agreement reached between them.

     

    What happens if my partner doesn’t comply with a Consent Order?

    If you are having trouble with your former partner complying with the Consent Orders the first option is always to speak with them and see if Things can be varied or arrangements can be made so that the Consent Orders are complied with. Attending mediation can also assist with having what is complied with. If all else fails either party can make an application to the court to enforce the Consent Orders by filing an application and a supporting affidavit. The code has a number of remedies available to ensure that the Orders are complied with.

    After trying unsuccessfully, despite 3 uni degrees
    , to DIY through the Family Court website, I contacted Kate Austin lawyers needing Court Orders done ASAP . They were prompt, communicative, professional and helpful. It was a load off my mind knowing they would handle the matter for me. They were great with communicating via email with no unnecessary phone calls. Their fees were not eye watering, they gave me an approximate date of finalisation and it was all sealed and resolved earlier than that. Highly recommend them

      The process of writing consent orders was made very simple by your knowledge and professionalism. Jessica was easy to talk with from my initial telephone call and easy to communicate with by email thereafter. Her manner was reassuring and considerate and she had the knowledge required to answer my questions. The fixed cost made budgeting easy and affordable. I have already recommended your company to a friend and will do so again in the futureread more
