Now that you and your partner are separating how is it determined who gets what? The steps for working out an appropriate division of property include:
A property settlement can be formalised by Court Orders or by Consent Orders (where both parties agree) or alternatively by a Binding Financial Agreement (“BFA”). A BFA can be made before, during, or after a relationship. The Family Law Act provides both married and de facto partners to enter into a BFA, however both parties need to obtain independent legal advice.
