Expansion of Lighthouse and Evatt List
The expansion of Lighthouse means that risk screening, triage and differentiated
case management, including the Evatt List, is now available in 15 family law
registries and offered to any party filing parenting only, and parenting and
financial orders.

Watch the informative webinar about this important family violence and safety
initiative.
Use dispute resolution to reduce costs and emotional stress
Court proceedings should be a last resort. The Court expects people to make
genuine attempts to engage in dispute resolution, to avoid the time, cost and
stress associated with litigation.
You can separate smarter
Where it is safe to do so, you can take ownership of your dispute. Whether you
agree, partially agree or don’t agree at all. You can mediate at any stage, as
many times as you need. It is time we started thinking differently about family
law disputes.
A court responsive to family violence and risk to children
The Court places children, litigants and their safety at the heart of the
process.
For some families, it may be unsafe to resolve their disputes without the help
of the Court process and Court orders. Remember, there are people who can help
you.
Expertise and resources to deliver initiatives
For those matters that need to proceed to trial parties can be confident in the
process which has integrity, the expertise of judges, judicial registrars, court
child experts and staff, delivering a world-leading federal law system.
