Based primarily at Millers Junction Village in Altona North, the firm remains closely connected to Melbourne’s inner west community, maintaining offices in Yarraville and offering consultation rooms in Preston and South Morang by appointment. Flexible meeting options including telephone and video conferences are available, with a preference for in-person consultations initially. After hours and weekend appointments can also be arranged to accommodate client needs. The firm’s services span a comprehensive range of family law issues. This includes matters concerning children, such as care arrangements, education, medical decisions, and relocation. Anderson Family Lawyers assist clients with financial agreements post-separation and provide advice to clarify legal rights and obligations during separation. They are experienced in facilitating property settlements and addressing related financial concerns, including superannuation. Clients receive expert guidance on child support, whether negotiating limited or binding agreements, as well as counselling on responsibilities related to child support determinations. The firm provides counsel on de facto relationships regardless of gender, including issues that arise when parties have other existing relationships. For those considering or undergoing surrogacy or donor arrangements, Anderson Family Lawyers offer comprehensive support, including drafting agreements and obtaining parentage orders. The practice also handles spousal maintenance claims following relationship breakdowns and provides assistance in divorce proceedings with a focus on ensuring clients understand their entitlements. For clients involved in family violence intervention order applications, whether as applicants or respondents, the firm advises on legal options and likely outcomes. Beyond resolved disputes, Anderson Family Lawyers prepare clients considering separation by offering pre-separation advice to help navigate the process thoughtfully. They also provide litigation guardianship services for family law proceedings involving parties who are unable to represent themselves. Throughout all matters, Anderson Family Lawyers aim to deliver clear, supportive legal assistance while prioritising the dignity and best interests of their clients.
