About the Family Court
Part of the Family Justice Courts
The Family Courts are part of the Family Justice Courts, with the Youth Courts and the Family Division of the High Court. They hear legal issues within the family, using a multi-disciplinary approach that applies insights from psychology and social science research.
What it hears
Family cases including divorce, probate and administration, maintenance, protection against family violence, deputyship, adoption, protection for vulnerable adults, guardianship and international child abduction. Larger matters — family proceedings involving assets of $5 million or more, and estates worth more than $5 million — go to the Family Division of the High Court instead.
Family Courts also hear some applications under the Protection from Harassment Act 2014.
Appeals
Appeals against decisions of the Family Courts are heard by the Family Division of the High Court.
