Our Maintenance Legal Services

Spousal Maintenance

Spousal maintenance provides financial support to a former spouse after divorce. We assist clients in securing reasonable and just maintenance by considering factors such as the length of the marriage, financial needs, earning capacity and contributions made during the marriage. We also represent clients contesting maintenance claims that may be excessive or unjustified.

Child Maintenance

Parents have a legal duty to support their children financially. We help clients establish fair child maintenance arrangements that reflect the child’s needs, educational expenses and the financial ability of both parents. Whether you are applying for child maintenance or contesting an unfair demand, we advocate for a solution that prioritises the child’s well-being.

Variation of Maintenance Orders

Circumstances change and maintenance orders may need to be adjusted for income, employment status and financial needs. We assist clients in applying for variations to increase, decrease, or terminate maintenance obligations when justified by significant changes in their circumstances.

Enforcement of Maintenance Orders

If your former spouse has failed to comply with a court-ordered maintenance agreement, we provide legal assistance to enforce payment through court proceedings, including garnishment of wages or other enforcement measures.
