Family Law | Elston Financial Services

Working with your family lawyer

Usually your family lawyer is the first person you will turn to as you begin to plan your next steps. At some stage your lawyer may also recommend that you seek advice from a specialist financial planner. Whenever Elston has been invited to assist in these situations, we make sure we work closely with you and your family lawyer, as part of a collaborative team.

Creating a level playing field

In a long-term relationship, where each person has taken on different roles, it’s not uncommon for one person to know more about the finances than the other. When that kind of imbalance in knowledge exists, an Elston financial planner can help to level the playing field. We can boost your confidence by providing education and support tailored to your needs.

Negotiate with confidence

To achieve a property settlement outcome that's right for you, it's important that you clearly identify what you’re trying to achieve. When Elston gets involved early in the process, we can help you to picture your future life. We can get you thinking about what you want, and how that might be different to what you need. And we can draw up different options for you, so you can negotiate with confidence.

The freedom of a fixed fee

As you progress towards a successful property settlement, you're going to have lots of questions along the way. That's why we offer a fixed fee service that encourages you to chat with us as often as you like. Every meeting, phonecall or email is covered by one all-up fee. So, you don't have to stress about extra costs. And you can alleviate a lot of the anxiety you’re experiencing by getting the advice you need as quickly as possible.
