Understanding the Role of Lawyers During a Divorce

  • Written by News Company


The divorce process looks different for each couple, but one constant remains the same in every situation - the lawyers. The role of a lawyer during a divorce is comprehensive, but many don’t understand the entirety of their responsibilities and how they can guide the proceedings. Today we are going to break down the role of a lawyer during a divorce, and what you can rely on them to deliver from start to finish. If you are about to embark on this journey be sure to read along before selecting your chosen VM Family lawyer. 

Family law is about more than the outcome

Very few start their divorce proceedings without stress and trepidation, and that’s where your divorce lawyers in Melbourne can guide you through the journey in a sensitive and measured way. Your lawyer can assist in finding an appropriate family mediation and pre-divorce counselling and can work with you to articulate what your desires are in separating and how you see this unfolding for your family. Family law is about achieving a fair result that is going to facilitate a healthy relationship for each party moving forward, diffusing any conflict and leaving this hostility in family mediation. 

Just and equal representation

Lawyers tend to get a bad reputation in the public eye, but it is their sacred oath to uphold the justice system and fairly represent each client, regardless of who is being represented and what their power imbalances may be. When you engage a divorce lawyer you can expect that they will pursue the most equitable route, ensuring you and your partner have a fair split of any assets and benefits that may have been procured before or during the marriage. Of course, your lawyer is only as good as the information you are will to provide, so be sure to be forthright in declaring all relevant information to your legal team so that they can represent your interests.


We would like to believe that each divorce is an amicable and respectful process, but this just isn’t always the case. When these heated moments present themselves, you want to have a lawyer who is guided only by the law and a robust sequence of events. This is how you will get a fair result and not be in court any longer than you need to be.

A roadmap

In times of uncertainty, you want to know what’s ahead, what comes next and what all the moving parts are in these divorce proceedings. Your divorce lawyer will provide this roadmap to keep you prepared for each step and feel supported in knowing that the progress is moving forward. This can be very beneficial to your mental health if the divorce is causing your stress. Your lawyer will also guide you in those next steps once the divorce is finalised, whether you would like to settle another issue with your lawyer in court, figure out how the separation of assets works, and even the administrative tasks of changing names and signing all the right paperwork for your records.


If you are knee-deep in research and planning for an upcoming divorce, be sure to take the time in selecting a lawyer that you have a connection with and can work with on one of the most exhausting and emotional events in your life. After all, they are representing you and so you should not have any reservations about your decision and choice in a lawyer. Don’t be afraid to ask questions and talk with friends who might have also been through a divorce to get a better understanding of what to look for in your legal representation, as your support networks can be a fantastic source of strength.
