About Binding Financial Agreements.

Binding Financial Agreements can be drafted before, during or after a relationship, and are a great way of securing assets, protecting your superannuation, and ensuring fairness prevails. You might want a BFA if:

  • You want to choose how you want your assets and finances split in the event of a separation, rather than engaging in arguments, mediation and court battles after separation occurs.
  • You want to save the time and money of going to court to seek property orders.
  • You want to deal with your assets upon separation in a way that the court might not necessarily think is fair or just (known as “just and equitable”).
  • You do not want the court to be involved in the asset split between you and the other party.
  • You want control, confidentiality and finality to your property settlement.
  • You want to protect inheritances you have received or expect to receive from being divided in the event of a separation.
