Legal Services
Family matters are always complex and emotionally charged for good reason. Our team along with trusted multi-disciplinary experts endevour to provide solutions in order to achieve the best possible legal solution.
Wills and Estate
A well-drafted will is one of the most important things you can do for the people you love. Grohovaz Attorneys assists you in drafting a clear and legally valid will, planning for the future of your estate, and ensuring that your wishes — including the guardianship of your minor children — are clearly recorded and legally enforceable.
Surrogacy
Surrogacy offers a path to parenthood for those who cannot conceive naturally. Grohovaz Attorneys assists intended parents and surrogates in navigating the legal framework under the Children's Act — from drafting a valid surrogacy agreement to obtaining the required High Court confirmation — so that everyone involved is protected and the path to your parenthood is clear.
Parental Rights, Care & Contact
Your relationship with your child is one of the most important in your life, and the law recognises that. When parental rights, care arrangements or contact are in dispute, Grohovaz Attorneys assists you in protecting your relationship with your child and your child’s right to have a relationship with you.
Mediation
Not every family dispute needs to be resolved in a courtroom. Mediation offers a calmer, more cost-effective path to workable solutions, where all parties have a voice and outcomes are agreed rather than imposed. Grohovaz Attorneys supports families through the mediation process with structure, legal insight, and a genuine commitment to practical, lasting agreements.
Maintenance
Every child has a legal right to be financially supported by both parents, regardless of the parents' relationship. Grohovaz Attorneys assists you with maintenance applications, enforcement of existing maintenance orders, and variations where circumstances have changed — keeping the focus on equitable and realistic outcomes for you, your children and/or your family.
Domestic Violence
No one should live in fear in their own home. Grohovaz Attorneys assists victims of domestic violence — and those at risk — in obtaining protection orders, understanding their legal rights, and taking the steps necessary to secure safety for themselves and their children, with sensitivity and without judgement.
Child Welfare and Protection
When a child's safety or wellbeing is at risk, acting quickly and correctly is everything. Grohovaz Attorneys assists parents, caregivers, and concerned parties in child protection and welfare matters — from urgent court applications to navigating care and protection investigations — always with the child's best interests as our guiding principle.
Antenuptial Contracts
Marriage in all it’s forms customary, civil unions and simply partnerships is a commitment which has been celebrated in many forms. However, life happens and being rational regarding financial matters is of importance. We are here to assist you in making an informed and practical decision regarding your matrimonial property regime.
Adoption
Adoption is one of the most profound and joyful legal processes a family can go through. Grohovaz Attorneys walks you through every step of the adoption journey — from the initial application to the final court order — ensuring the process is handled correctly, compassionately, and with your child's best interests at heart.
Divorce
When a marriage breaks down, the road ahead can feel uncertain and overwhelming. At Grohovaz Attorneys, we walk with you as legal representatives with clarity and compassion, handling everything from asset division and spousal maintenance to care and contact arrangements for your children.
