Episode 044 - Interview with family lawyer Kate Pateman: I'm separated... now what?

In this episode of the Single Mother Survival Guide Podcast, Julia talks with family lawyer, Kate Pateman. The topic of this week's episode is "I'm separated...now what?". Kate and Julia discuss what steps to take, and what to consider from a legal perspective when you are separated. This includes:

• a generalised process of what happens after separation, particularly if there are children involved,
• how to navigate child care arrangements,
• financial matters,
• what to do if one party is a business owner,
• child support issues,
• property settlement,
• the psychology of separation and negotiations, 
• the best way to document any agreements, and
• LOTS MORE!

Kate is the founder and Principal Collaborative Family Lawyer at KLP Family Law. She has practiced exclusively in the area of Family Law for almost a decade and has acquired vast experience throughout that time in all aspects of Family Law. She is a leader in providing expert Family Law advice and provides realistic and commercial advice to her clients which has resulted in a better understanding for her clients of the process and of their entitlements. This generally leads to early and cost effective settlements as people are reasonable and empowered when they are confident that they have received the right advice and have a good understanding of the process and their rights. Kate has a particular passion for and focus on financial matters involving complex issues and significant property pools.
