TOM DOUMANIS OAM/PARTNER

Biography

Tom holds a Masters in Applied Law (Family Law) and has 30 years of experience in Family Law and Commercial Litigation with the past 12 years working substantively only in Family Law. Tom is conscious of the sensitivity and distress associated with separation and the breakup of the family particularly its effect on children and the financial consequences arising from separation. On receiving instructions, Tom’s immediate objective is to minimise as much as possible the emotional impact of the breakup by:

  • firstly providing a practical guidance towards achieving suitable arrangements for the children including referrals to professional counsellors;
  • secondly doing all things immediately possible to protect the financial interests of the client and offer options leading either to resolution of property issues without resort to litigation but if unsuccessful, vigorously and expeditiously initiate and pursue court resolution of the dispute.

Tom’s experience in Commercial Litigation brings an added edge to analysing property issues and marshalling the property into the property pool. Tom’s use of experienced forensic accountants to cut across ‘cloudy’ financial records and statements, particularly the use of third party’s trusts, corporations or partnerships to veil the true value and financial interests of the parties. Tom has particular interest in property brought to the marriage through special skills, windfalls, inheritances and prospective entitlements to inheritances and interests under discretionary trust and third party loans. Tom can provide expert advice on:

  • Family Law settlements
  • Parenting Orders
  • Financial Agreements
  • De Facto Relationships
  • Spouse Maintenance
  • Adoption

Tom is a Notary Public and Life Member and former President of New South Wales Soccer Federation Limited and Football New South Wales. On 26 January 2009, Tom was awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia for service to football in Australia and legal and community services.
