FLP Family Lawin partnership withCoastal Advice

Welcome. Joe has set this up for you.

A quiet place to do
the difficult bit.

Financial disclosure is stressful, confusing and too often drawn out. We know. Decades of manually building the truth, and fighting for what's fair, went into the quiet workspace in front of you. It's done in private, at the pace that suits you, and you only have to say each thing once.

What you build here flows into your Family Law Plan, FLP's transparent map of process, timeframes and cost. Clarity, not fog.

Private to you and the team you trust on this journey. The Settle is provided to FLP's clients and trusted-advisor referrals. Why we exist →

“You ran a home. You raised people. You held things together when no one was watching. The numbers are not beyond you , they were simply never handed to you.”

Most of our readers are women. Many are men. All are welcome here.

Three chapters, one steady hand

Wherever you are, start there.

Most arrive feeling behind. You are not. Choose the chapter that matches today, and we will meet you there, in plain English.

  1. I

    Before

    Quietly preparing. Finding the paperwork, understanding what you own and owe, and building a soft landing, without anyone needing to know yet.

  2. II

    During

    In the thick of it. Separating joint accounts, talking to lawyers, learning the language of settlements and superannuation, and keeping the household running.

  3. III

    After

    A fresh page. Rebuilding your financial identity, redirecting bills, owning your super and investments, and planning the next chapter.

Brock, your plain-English money guide
Here to help

Meet Brock

A friendly first port of call, any time of day.

Brock is the quiet voice in the corner of every page. Ask him anything about bank accounts, bills, super, insurance, or the steps in front of you, in plain English, with no jargon and no judgement. He's here for the questions you might feel silly asking a lawyer.

Brock gives general education, not legal or financial advice. When the question is yours alone, he'll gently point you to the team at FLP and Coastal Advice.

What's actually in here

Your consult, your disclosure, your brief.

Joe already recorded your consult so you don't have to remember every word, or sit through it again. From there, every question you answer and every brain dump you write is quietly built into one orderly, fact-based brief. Life's chaos, made legible. Knowledge is power, and facts beat opinion.

01

Your consult with Joe

Already done, and quietly doing its job in the background. You don't need to listen back, the consult is part of the foundation we're building on.

02

The disclosure walk

A guided walk through assets, liabilities, super and contributions, mapped to the Family Law Act framework Joe will use. Park anything you need a document for, come back to it later.

03

Your Family Law Plan starts here

Your consult, your answers and your story, woven into a lawyer-ready brief with pool composition, super gaps, chronology and the human context. The seed of the Plan FLP will deliver, with transparency on process, timeframes and cost.

Brock, the friendly guide in the corner of every page, is here whenever you get stuck. Plain English, no jargon, no judgement.

Three streams of guidance

Held the whole way through, never on your own.

Three quiet streams running in the background, so whatever you need next is always within reach.

01

The disclosure engine

Fully facilitated. Every question is mapped, every answer is filed, every gap is flagged. You don't have to know the framework; the framework is already inside the workspace.

02

The journey

Self-paced guidance through Before, During and After. Long-form chapters that meet you where you are tonight, and wait patiently when you need to step away.

03

The knowledge bank

The most reliable place to dive deeper. Curated, authoritative Australian sources, organised by theme, with a glossary alongside for the language that comes with all of it.

From here to the brief

Four quiet steps, in your own time.

No deadline tonight. No form to finish in one sitting. Each step saves as you go, and you can stop and start as many times as you need.

01

Step one, your consult with Joe

Already done. The recording is quietly working in the background so you never have to repeat yourself, or sit through it again.

02

Step two, the disclosure walk

Assets, liabilities, super and contributions, one gentle question at a time. Park anything that needs a document and come back to it.

03

Step three, your story

The context the numbers can't show. Speak it, type it, in pieces. Brock holds the thread.

04

Step four, the brief for Joe

Every answer, every brain dump and the consult itself, woven into one orderly, fact-based brief the team at FLP can act on.
