Consent Orders are a way for parties to formalise an agreement they’ve reached dividing their assets and liabilities or formalising the arrangements for the future care of their children without having to go to court. It is done by making an application to the Family Court which sets out the specifics of the agreement that you’ve reached. Once the court makes Orders in accordance with your agreement, it becomes legally binding in the same way as if the court had made Orders pursuant to a contested hearing. Property settlement Orders and the financial relationship between the parties you and Orders a formalising your parenting arrangements give you both peace of mind for the future.
