Sydney-Wide Family Lawyers
With our team on your side, your family can prosper thanks to committed legal support and full-service legal protection. Whether it surrounds consent orders or binding financial agreements, this extends to:
PARENTING LAW
Parenting law is the area of law that deals with the rights and responsibilities of parents. This includes family law matters pertaining to child custody, child support, and parenting time.
DIVORCE LAW
Whether you and your spouse are in the process of separating or you wish to begin proceedings, we can support your side of the divorce.
SPOUSAL MAINTENANCE
We can work through the courts to secure your settlement funds if your former spouse has neglected their financial obligations following a divorce.
RECOVERY APPLICATIONS
If your former spouse has missed child support payments or you wish to recover property that was transferred during a divorce without your consent, our legal team is prepared to fight on your behalf to secure your rightfully-owed property.
DEFACTO RELATIONSHIPS
A de facto relationship is a relationship between two people who are not married but who live together as a couple. A de facto relationship is recognised by law and confers certain rights.

For a woman, it is very difficult to deal with harassment, stalking and intimidation. Last year, I have applied for APVO against my neighbour.
Although I had CCTV footages and other evidence, to actually go through the whole court process is stressful, especially because I decided to represent myself in the court. Once I stepped into the legal process the realization hit me that having evidence may not be enough to win and protect myself from the defendant. When you represent yourself, the defendant’s solicitor sees that as an easy winning for his client and uses intimidation tactics.
I have contacted several solicitors but was put off by their emotionlessness approach. I contacted Jonathan Jaramillo from James and Jaramillo Lawyers who offered free first consultation. Comprehensive information offered by Jonathan was very impressive. He listened attentively and took time to answer my questions. He did not tell me what I wanted to hear, but what I needed to hear. I decided to represent myself and asked Jonathan if he would guide me and advise me throughout the process. This would be more cost-effective for me. Regardless of the size of the case, Jonathan was from the beginning to the end extremely professional, prompt and kind. He explained everything clearly making me feel confident with the legal process.
I have managed to get Interim Order in the early stage of the process-mention, which was protecting me till the final hearing in March 2024 when I won the case. This outcome could not have been achieved without working with Jonathan and his professional guidance. I can’t speak highly enough about Jonathan Jaramillo and recommend him for anyone who is looking for a good, responsive and reliable solicitor, and a genuine person.

Yes, we do.

Our team can assist you with taking the steps to determine your eligibility for litigation funding with JustFund.
While family lawyers are instrumental in court-related matters, particularly in venues like the Federal Circuit Court and the Family Court of Australia, their expertise extends beyond litigation. They offer counselling, mediation, and other non-litigious services to help resolve many family disputes outside the courtroom. In the Australian legal system, especially in cases processed by the Federal Circuit Court and the Family Court, skilled legal assistance can significantly aid in navigating both courtroom proceedings and alternative dispute resolution methods.
Our office operates from 8 am to 8 pm, 7 days a week. Outside these hours, we are still reachable 24/7 by phone at (02) 8378 8585. You can also contact Jonathan or Tom on Wickr at bettercalljohn or tjslawyer. Our law firm is committed to being available when you need us.
Though online tools might provide a general idea, accurate calculations require a case-by-case analysis. Our seasoned lawyers will guide you through this process.
The duration depends on various factors, including the complexity of the case, cooperation between parties involved, and timely submission of required information. An approximate timeline will be given at the initial consultation.
Please bring any documents pertinent to your case, such as divorce papers or child custody agreements. If you require more guidance, please inquire before your appointment, and ensure you have something for note-taking.
Consent orders are legally binding family law agreements commonly used to formalise arrangements for property division or child custody. They help maintain harmony among parties by establishing clear agreements. Our team at JJ Lawyers can assist you in navigating and securing consent orders tailored to your needs. Further details on Consent Orders are available on our website.
Family court proceedings are only sometimes necessary. Options like mediation, Family Dispute Resolution, or negotiations between parties and lawyers are often effective. We will assess all possible non-litigious solutions.
Essential documents include your marriage certificate, relevant citizenship proofs, and a valid ID. Our expert team will assist you with the necessary documentation and procedures.
We strive to provide legal services that everyone can access. Costs may differ depending on your unique situation. Still, we can offer a precise estimate during your no-obligation initial consultation.
Although self-representation is an option, professional legal guidance can offer valuable insights and strategies specific to your situation.
Choosing a family lawyer who aligns with your needs is essential. Evaluate their experience, communication skills, empathy, and track record in family law. A complimentary initial meeting can assist you in determining compatibility.
