Divorce financial agreement no superannuation split
So, now we know you are divorced and do not need to deal with the splitting of superannuation assets. If this is correct read more about the divorce financial agreement.
Just to be clear, when we use the term "divorce agreement" it is the same document as a binding financial agreement, made under section 90D.
It’s not unusual for a couple to go through the process of getting a divorce without straightening out the property settlement issues.
If you are finalising the settlement yourself by using a financial agreement, then you can take as much time as you need to make these decisions.
It’s often simpler to sort the finances sooner because the longer you leave making the divorce agreement, the more difficult it becomes for some people to deal with the financial disclosure requirements.
Using a financial agreement
A divorce agreement (or financial agreement) is a simple and convenient way to formalise the end of the relationship, at least from a financial perspective, giving both parties closure and a new beginning.
It deals with all the usual issues you may be faced with when dividing financial resources such as real estate, personal property (cars, furniture, etc), shares, debt, spousal maintenance and so forth when a relationship breaks down.
Some of these issues may seem a little daunting at first, but given the right template to start, some sample clauses and a little guidance, you will be relieved at how straight forward it actually is.
Remember, we have shown thousands of couples how to navigate this peaceful path, and it’s unlikely your case will be any different.
You can use this divorce agreement to settle property matters that do not include superannuation splitting.
Please Note: if you wish to apply to the courts so that they make a decision on your behalf about finances, then you must do so within 12 months of the divorce date.

Why do you need to get Legal Advice?
For a Financial Agreement to be legally binding under Australian law, both parties must receive independent legal advice from separate lawyers. This is not a loophole or a formality. It’s the legal requirement that makes the agreement enforceable. Without it, the agreement can be set aside by a court.
Our fixed-price Legal Review Service connects each of you with an independent family law solicitor from our carefully selected panel. Each solicitor reviews your completed agreement with you separately, by phone or Zoom – no office visit required. Once each of you has received that advice, your solicitor issues a Certificate of Independent Legal Advice. Both certificates together make your agreement legally binding.
The combined kit and Legal Review Service covers both of you (in the vast majority of cases) for a fixed price of $3,299 – a fraction of what you’d pay engaging two separate law firms from scratch.
Financial Agreement Kit for couples who are divorced
The Kit includes everything you need to draft a binding Divorce Agreement PLUS it gives you access to the Fixed price Legal Advice (Legal Review Service $3,250 covers both parties in most cases) that you must obtain to finalise your Agreement.
You made my property settlement a calm, simple process

“Hi Ian, I can’t thank you enough for the great service I received from you and your team. When I had queries, I received prompt replies. Several times you replied by telephone. This is unheard of from most online businesses. I am also grateful for the amount of money I saved, unbelievable. I have no hesitation in recommending you to family and friends.”

Quick Answers Before You Start
Can we do everything remotely? Yes – entirely. The kit is downloaded instantly. Your completed BFA Planner is submitted online. The solicitor appointments are conducted by phone or Zoom. You never need to visit an office. This works just as well whether you’re in the same city or on opposite sides of the country.
What if we have superannuation to divide? The BFA Planner covers superannuation too. Note that super splitting involves an additional step: your super fund needs to approve the draft superannuation agreement before you proceed to the Legal Advice stage. We’ll guide you through this.
Is the Certificate of Legal Advice guaranteed? In the vast majority of cases, yes. In rare circumstances a solicitor may identify a concern – such as evidence of duress or undisclosed assets – that prevents them from issuing the Certificate. If this occurs we’ll discuss it with you directly. It happens very rarely, but we believe in being upfront about it.

Forget Legal Jargon and blank legal Forms
Getting started here means answering a set of plain-English questions about your situation – in your own words, at your own pace.
We’ll ask about what you own and owe: property, super, savings, debts, vehicles, etc, and how you wish to divide it.
The completed BFA Planner is yours to keep and serves as a properly organised record of your property and finances, which is what a thorough property settlement needs.
It’s a Word document you can save, step away from, and come back to. Nothing is sent anywhere until you choose to send it – so there’s no pressure to have every answer ready before you start.
When you do send your completed Planner to us for review, that’s what gets things moving. Your answers are used to build your draft Financial Agreement, drawing on the framework we’ve refined across thousands of BFAs since 2009 – reviewed personally by our team.
Then our team will be in touch. If your arrangement fits within the scope of the Legal Review Service, we’ll confirm it and talk you through what happens next; if it isn’t quite there yet, we’ll explain why and what still needs sorting.
If it’s ready to proceed, a payment of $990 gets your matter formally underway. From there, we work through the finer detail together by phone and email – the points people often miss – getting your agreement ready for the next stage.
Once that’s done, the final balance payment of $2,260 unlocks the next stage: two independent lawyers – one for each of you. They provide the advice and certification the Family Law Act requires. Your lawyer will finalise your agreement and provide the final version ready for signing.
