Relationship Property

Webb Farry recognises that each relationship property matter can have its own complexity.  We minimise the complexity for you and communicate well throughout the process to ensure your rights are understood and protected and expectations are realised.

If you are entering a relationship, we can provide certainty for the future by preparing a contracting-out agreement (commonly known as a “pre-nuptual agreement” or “pre-nup”).  This document can provide protection for pre-relationship assets and specify how you wish the ownership of income or assets built up during a relationship to apply.

When a relationship ends, we can guide you through the process, providing strategic advice around property interests and entitlements.  We are experienced with complex negotiations and, if necessary, litigation to decide more problematic aspects.

Webb Farry also brings its commercial and trust expertise to relationship property structuring and divisions to achieve an outcome which is effective at a personal and business level.

 

A flexible way to fund your matter:

We understand that when you're navigating a separation or relationship property matter, the financial strain can sometimes stand in the way of getting the legal support you need.  That's why we've partnered with JustFund - New Zealand's only dedicated provider of flexible funding solutions for family law legal fees.  Through this partnership, eligible clients can access a flexible line of credit to cover legal fees and expenses related to sepration or relationship property proceedings.  You don't have to repay the loan until you reach a settlement, which we hope reduces the stress associated with paying costs upfront.
