I think it's just to protect your assets.

But like I said, you do it, but then don't forget about it.

It's important that you keep updating them so you always know that if your asset pool increases together, it's wonderful, but just to ensure that you've got that security knowing that if you separate assets,

then you know how your assets will be divided.

And I guess it alleviates any worry between the parties because they've communicated with one another openly about how they intend on dividing their assets in the event of a separation, if it happens, which we don't, but it can.

Yeah, I know, but my view is that it's always good to be organised and to know, you know, this is your asset pool that you've worked hard for for so many years, that it's good to know and have that communication up front and that transparency where you know that in the event that the relationship doesn't work out, that you know how your assets will be divided.

Yeah.

So as I mentioned earlier, Kate, you've got your binding financial agreement and you've got your consent order.

So consent orders are written agreements that are lodged and approved by a court, um,

which is now the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia.

And you can actually apply to the court for the consent orders without going to court, which is great.

And the solicitor can prepare the application and draft it, or you can prepare them yourself, which can be done through that useful website and tool that we talked about with Gabrielle called Amica.

So it can help you prepare your consent order through a guided collaborative process.

where you can then finalise your property agreement, your consent order, and you can lodge that with the court.

And it has the same effect as if an order was made by a judge at trial.

So it's full and final.

Yes.

So you can do parenting orders, yes, through the process, through an application for consent orders in the court, and you can do property as well.

So on America, you have the option of preparing a parenting.

So talking more so about parenting now, you can talk about, you can create a parenting agreement or a parenting plan document.
