Author: Robyn Wheeler 1 T 9225 8006 E [email protected] ROBYN WHEELER, FOLEY’S LIST VICTORIAN BAR TAXATION FOR FAMILY LAWYERS There are two things in life that are certain; death and taxes” The Author has copyright to this paper. Where appropriate the Author acknowledges experts from other sources such as CCH Family Law. Highlights are the authors save where otherwise stated INTRODUCTION There really are some certainties in life We will all die, and we will all pay tax. How taxes are apportioned between separating couples is an area often overlooked by practitioners It will be rather hard, in the space of twenty minutes to “cover the field” in relation to the issue of taxation and the Family Law case. As you may be aware, we lawyers are generally not insured for giving taxation advice. This paper is NOT a paper about taxation advice, nor do I give “taxation advice”. Rather I will try to set out some pitfalls that lawyers need to be aware of when negotiating in Family Law matters, particularly when the assets to be divided or transferred are more than the family home and car and superannuation.
