Flexible Legal Financing for Family Law Matters

We have partnered with JustFund as a practical and compassionate solution for clients who need support covering legal costs. Through our partnership, eligible clients can access a flexible line of credit to help manage legal fees and expenses, with nothing to repay until after a settlement is reached. Unlike traditional lenders, JustFund does not look at income or credit scores to approve funding support for family law matters.

This kind of flexible funding can be life-changing, particularly for those who are financially dependent on a partner, experiencing family violence, or trying to navigate a complex separation without the immediate means to proceed.

By introducing legal finance early in the process, we want to help ensure that no one is denied quality legal representation simply because of their financial position.

Who is JustFund?

JustFund is Australia’s first and only dedicated family law finance provider that partners with leading family law firms to make legal representation more accessible, especially for those facing financial hardship.

Accessing legal services can feel impossible when money is tight. Whether you’re financially dependent on your partner, experiencing family violence, or managing a mortgage and daily living costs, the burden of legal fees can put justice out of reach. JustFund aims to remove that barrier by providing a flexible, affordable line of credit tailored to your legal case.

Funding with JustFund can be accessed at any stage of the separation process and is repaid only after your settlement. By simplifying access to legal finance, JustFund empowers people to move forward with confidence, dignity, and support, when they need it most.

Step one – Application

Apply online or call us to discover how we can assist with your family law fees. We’ll work directly with your lawyers to expedite the process and get you the support you need quickly.

Step two – Assessment

We determine eligibility for a line of credit to cover family law fees within one week, once we’ve received all the necessary information.

Step three – Approval

If approved, we advance the funds you need to cover family law fees and disbursements, giving you the support to manage legal costs until your property matter is settled.

Step four – Repayment

Repay the family law fees only when it’s all over and only from what you receive from your property settlement.

Who is Eligible for Funding?

JustFund’s services only cover matters related to property settlements. Unfortunately, JustFund cannot cover cases that only involve parenting arrangements. However, if you’re organising parenting and property matters simultaneously, JustFund can assist. Take this quick survey to find out if you are eligible - https://justfund.com.au/eligibility/
