Child Custody Lawyer Rowville - Legal Support for Parenting Matters

Making important decisions about your children after separation is never easy, especially when you are also adjusting to emotional, financial, and practical pressures. It can be difficult to focus on their future while managing your own.

With more than 25 year’s experience in parenting and custody matters, Just Family Law has supported families across Rowville, Lysterfield, Scoresby, and Knoxfield. Our child custody lawyers provide clear, practical advice to help you resolve disputes with confidence and care.

We’ve assisted many families in Rowville with custody matters and parenting arrangements. Every situation is different, which is why we tailor our approach, whether through negotiation, mediation, or representation in the Family Court.

Even when both parents want what is best for their children, disagreements often arise. Our child custody lawyer in Rowville can guide you on how Family Courtis likely to assess your case, helping you make confident, early decisions.Even well-intentioned parents can find themselves in conflict over:

  • Parenting styles and expectations
  • Number of nights per fortnight
  • Changeover logistics
  • Schooling choices (public or private)
  • School holidays, birthdays, and special events

While many matters settle out of court, we regularly act in more complex parenting cases involving:

  • Stubborn or unrealistic ex-partners
  • Abusive or controlling behaviour
  • Relocation or contested moves
  • Schooling disagreements after separation
  • Mental health concerns
  • Irresponsible parenting or neglect
  • Drug and alcohol misuse

Our child custody lawyers in Rowville focus on protecting your child’s wellbeing and helping you navigate even the most sensitive family dynamics.

The Family Law Act prioritises a child’s right to maintain meaningful relationships with both parents, where safe. Recent changes to the Act place greater emphasis on stability, safety, and long-term wellbeing rather than rigid time-sharing.

Early support from an experienced family law lawyer can help you navigate challenges, protect your rights, and give you a clearer path forward for your family.

Call Just Family Law today on 03 9793 7888 to arrange a confidential consultation and take the next step toward a stable, child-focused parenting arrangement.

    I highly recommend Sally O'Connor and Just Family Law.
    Our circumstances in engaging JFL were due to the sudden and tragic passing of my sister. Sally assisted our family through complex legal proceedings as we sought full parental responsibilities for her three children, my nieces and nephew.
    Sally was able to shift from holding my hand and passing tissues, to providing practical solutions, advice and guidance on how best to navigate the legal system and achieve what was in the best interest of the kids.
    Thank you Sally, we will never be able to express how much you did for us and how your counsel and friendship helped us navigate an incredibly difficult time.
    No hesitation at all in recommending Sally, and the JFL team.

    A barrister pointed me to them saying they were good for other referrals and I'm so happy I did engage them. I've heard horror stories but Sally and David were great. Not exactly cheap but seemed priceless. I recommend.

    I recently engaged Just Family Law to assist with the preparation of a Binding Financial Agreement and could not have been happier with the advice and service I received. From reception to solicitors to assistants they were approachable, compassionate, knowledgable and expert in family law issues. I highly recommend
