Sadly, Australia’s family law system is among the worst in the world, because the rules about financial settlements are very vague. 

Without black and white rules, separating couples hear all sorts of views about their settlement - and of course those ideas usually conflict. 

So if you haven’t been able to reach a settlement deal on your own yet, that’s normal.

The first thing you should do is get a clear and practical understanding of how settlements work.

We offer two free Quick Guides that explain key facts you need to know about financial settlements: 

1.  "What's Fair and Reasonable?"

2. "How Can We Formalise the Agreement We've Reached?"

If you don’t yet have an agreement, you’ll find the Quick Guide “What’s Fair and Reasonable?” a real help. 

It covers these topics:

• How Australia’s vague settlement laws affect you.
• Why “what am I entitled to?” is a difficult question to answer.
• The normal range that 98% of separating couples fit into.
• How to find the ballpark wealth split that’s right for you.
• Whether going to court or through lawyers makes sense for you.
• How flexible you can be in the way you divide your finances.
• What to do next.
