Applying for divorce is mostly paperwork, but small mistakes cause delays. We check your eligibility, prepare a joint or sole application and deal with service and the hearing.
We advise on what is fair after separation, negotiate with your former partner, and formalise the agreement by consent orders or a binding financial agreement.
When parents cannot agree on where children live and how they spend time with each parent, we advise on the options, from a parenting plan to court orders, with the children's best interests at the centre.
A will that is properly drafted and witnessed means your wishes are followed and your family avoids disputes. We prepare and update wills and apply for statutory wills where someone cannot make one.
These documents name who can make decisions for you if you cannot. We explain the difference, prepare them and witness them as the law requires.
When someone dies, the executor must collect the assets, pay the debts and distribute the estate. We guide executors through probate and advise families on estate disputes.
We act for buyers and sellers: contract review before you sign or bid, exchange and settlement, first home buyers, commercial and retail leases, developments and subdivisions.
We advise on business contracts and partnership disputes, bankruptcy and insolvency, and disputes over leases, mortgages and guarantees, and aim to resolve them before court where possible.
We help set up companies and trusts, prepare partnership deeds, and act when you buy or sell a business, working alongside your accountant.
We advise and appear for people facing apprehended violence orders, drug charges and assault charges in the Local Court.

“I engaged Annamaria for a financial separation from my ex-husband. She was thorough, knowledgeable, and ensured all the important details were addressed. While lawyers services are expensive, I appreciated her professionalism and attention to detail throughout the process. If you need someone competent for complex matters, Annamaria is a solid choice”
“Marano Family lawyers have half an hr free service for first consultation. I was desperate for a legal advice. Initially I went to a lawyer that I dealt with before for an advice and he gave me nothing helpful. I searched for another lawyer. I was lucky enough or in my belief that God has put this website on my way when I did my search and connected me to such a beautiful human Anna. I was in the middle of personal struggle and pressure with no knowledge about how family law works and I know nothing about legal matters related. All I needed was guidance. In one call Anna has given me she was so supportive. I came to realisation that there are 2 type of people. Type one will study and do their job to really help people who are in need and in vulnerable position like Anna did with me. Other type is where they do their job because it is a great source of income. From the bottom of my heart I appreciate Anna Murray. She put my heart at ease and her guidance which helped me more than she would know. We need actual humans in this world Thank you 🙏🏼🫶🏼 Saba”
“I recently had Annamaria Marano take on my Family Law Settlement at very late notice , due to my anxiety over the entire situation leading up to this. Annamaria was not only professional in her handling of the tsunami of information I threw at her, her experience, advice and non - judgemental support she gave me, enabled me to enter the negotiations with confidence I had not felt in years. Family Financial settlement would be a stressful time for anyone going through it. My own experience was complicated, emotionally draining, and at times overwhelming, yet Annamaria navigated me through it, giving me a strength, and a voice that had been silenced for years to reach a settlement that far exceeded what I had expected when I first approached her in tears. I cannot recommend enough to others , that if you are in need of Family Law Matters, please speak with Annamaria Marano and her team first.”
“Annamaria, i thankyou not only for being a Force of Nature, but for your hard work, dedication and of course the result of. For your honesty, sincerity and compassion for my cause, in the most vulnerable time of my life, you and yours gave me courage, hope strength, reassurance that came so naturally, trust was lost on me for the longest time, but you restored mine, for this and so much much more i am so very grateful to you all, and i cant thank you enough. Thank You, again God Bless”
