Family Settlement Agreements

Resolving how an estate is divided by agreement rather than by contest.

What this involves

Negotiated settlement drafting

We draft settlement terms that reflect what the family has actually agreed, written to hold up if it's ever challenged.

Family arbitration/mediation support

Where family members are willing to negotiate rather than litigate, we support that process through structured mediation.

Registration of settlement deeds

Once terms are agreed, we handle registration of the settlement deed so it carries full legal effect.

Enforcement of settlement terms

If a party later fails to honour a settlement, we act to enforce its terms through the courts.
