Lawyers Weekly reports A Canberra lawyer has founded what she describes as Australia’s first online family law firm, dedicated to formalising separating couples’ agreements in a way that is simple, fast and affordable.
Family lawyer Siobhan Mullins has just unveiled Separate Together, an online law firm that works with couples to formalise agreements reached after separation.
According to a statement from the firm, technology has enabled Separate Together to service separating Australians in regional and capital city areas right across Australia via its online platform, and from the comfort and convenience of one’s own home.
Ms Mullins said the idea around Separate Together came after she discovered that 70 per cent of litigated family law matters were resolved before trial with couples reaching an agreement.
She thought there had to be a better way to separate without “unnecessary court intervention” and “expensive lawyers”.
“We’re about simplifying the separation process with easy to understand step-by-step instructions about the process and providing easy accessibility to quality family law legal services at affordable prices,” said Ms Mullins.
