Family Dispute Resolution Certificates
If you are separated and want to apply to the court for a parenting order, you will need a certificate from a registered family dispute resolution practitioner to confirm that an attempt at family dispute resolution was made.
All Relationships Australia family dispute resolution practitioners are fully qualified and registered. To find your nearest Relationships Australia family dispute resolution service view our list of office locations or phone us on 1300 364 277.
There are some exceptions to the requirement for a certificate, including cases involving family violence or child abuse. For more information visit the Australian Government's Family Relationships Online website at www.familyrelationships.gov.au
