Family law proceedings are often intricate, encompassing a spectrum of emotional and legal complexities. While the primary parties involved are typically the spouses or parents, the involvement of third parties can significantly influence the trajectory and outcome of such cases. Understanding the diverse roles these third parties play is essential for anyone navigating the intricate landscape of family law. In this blog post, we’ll delve into the various third parties that may become involved in your family law matter and how their roles can impact the proceedings. 
  
Interveners and Joinders 
A third party is any person or creditor who is not party to the proceedings. The Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia (Family Law) Rules 2021 and the Family Law Act 1975 governs the joinder of third parties, which permits any person whose rights may be directly affected by an issue in the proceedings to participate as a party for the Court to determine all issues in dispute. This could include grandparents seeking visitation rights or creditors with claims against marital assets. 
 
Independent Children’s Lawyers (ICLs) 
In matters concerning child custody or welfare, the court may appoint an Independent Children’s Lawyer (ICL) to represent the child’s interests. Unlike other lawyers who advocate for their clients’ positions, ICLs focus solely on the child’s well-being and preferences. They gather evidence, participate in negotiations, and make recommendations to the court based on what they believe is in the child’s best interests. ICLs play a crucial role in ensuring that children’s voices are heard and considered in family law proceedings. 
  
Court-Appointed Experts 
In complex family law cases involving issues such as property valuation, psychological evaluations, or forensic accounting, the court may appoint experts to provide specialized knowledge or opinions. These experts could include forensic accountants, psychologists, or property valuers. Their role is to provide impartial assessments and expert opinions to assist the court in making informed decisions on matters requiring technical or specialized knowledge. 
  
Family Consultants 
Family consultants are mental health professionals or social scientists appointed by the court to assist in resolving parenting disputes. They conduct assessments, facilitate communication between parties, and develop parenting plans tailored to the specific needs of the family. Family consultants play a vital role in helping parties navigate co-parenting arrangements and develop strategies to promote the well-being of the children involved. 
  
Mediators and Arbitrators 
Mediation and arbitration are alternative dispute resolution methods commonly used in family law proceedings to resolve issues outside of court. Mediators are neutral third parties who assist parties in reaching mutually acceptable agreements through facilitated negotiation and communication. Arbitrators, on the other hand, have the authority to make binding decisions on contested issues. Both mediators and arbitrators can help parties resolve disputes efficiently, cost-effectively, and with greater control over the outcome. 
  
Conclusion 
Third parties play diverse and critical roles in family law proceedings, from representing the interests of children to providing expert opinions on complex issues. Whether it’s interveners, independent children’s lawyers, or court-appointed experts, their involvement can significantly impact the outcome of a case. By understanding the roles and contributions of these third parties, individuals involved in family law matters can navigate the legal process more effectively, ultimately leading to fairer and more equitable outcomes for all involved parties.

Going through a relationship breakdown is difficult for anyone. When you add children to the equation and tensions escalate to the point of legal proceedings, it’s hard to spot a winner.
That’s why the 2024 amendments to the Family Law Act 1975 hold such significant interest for those working in the field or facing a family law matter.
In this episode, Senior Associate and Practice Leader of Relationship Law, Rob Dilley, talks to Arbitrator, Mediator and Barrister, Colin Forrest SC. Colin also served as a trial judge in the Family Court of Australia for ten years before resigning in 2021.
In this episode, you’ll learn about:

Why it’s now harder for court orders to be changed
How the role of Independent Children’s Lawyers has changed
