Is your relationship in crisis?
At MELCA, that does not mean divorce. Our psychologists and counsellors are available to work with you individually or as a couple, to navigate your relationship issues. We are just a phone call away on 1300-MELCA-1 (1300 635 221), where you can speak confidentially to one of our sensitive and highly experienced team members, or you might prefer to email us
The decision to separate is always difficult,
we understand this.
In working out whether to stay or leave your relationship, you may be needing legal or financial information, emotional support or help with worries about your children. MELCA’s expert team can help with any or all of these concerns.
A MELCA separation & divorce keeps your family away from conflict and out of court
A MELCA separation & divorce is a win for everyone in the family. If you go to court or negotiate with lawyers ‘in the shadow of the court’, you are both aiming to win everything you can – but the reality is often that nobody wins. We think your family can do much better than that. We know your children can do much better than that. The MELCA Method keeps them in the centre and out of the middle.


A MELCA separation & divorce is both personalised and legally binding
At MELCA, your collaborative lawyer will represent you and can help with all aspects of family law and separation, including pre-nuptial agreements, binding financial agreements, child support, child custody, superannuation and property division. Your settlement is written up in documents that have the same legal standing as agreements reached in any other negotiation or court process.
